Getting Started

Git is used for source control.

The first step is to fork the central repository into your own github account and then clone that repository onto one of your own machines as described in this github fork tutorial. Note that you will set an additional remote repository pointing directly to the central repository so that you can new merge commits that have been made by others since you forked.

You can make a clone of your github repository on your local machine as follows:

git clone https://github.com/<username>/crave

We recommend using eclipse and importing your project into your local eclipse workspace using:

File → Import → Git → Projects from Git

Detailed information on how to clone github projects into eclipse is available here.

We recommend reading this online book.

For an account, please visit github.com and follow the steps to sign up to GitHub. Then pass your account name and associated email address to [email protected], so she can assign you to the project.
