About Lab #4

Our Next Module!

VERSION CONTROL!!!

• ...which is actually just more stuff to learn on the commandline
• more on this in a second...

And How?

To motivate the need for version control, we’ll also cover:

• a bit more shell scripting
• just enough JavaScript to write some basic programs:
  • this is absolutely not a programming class
  • this is absolutely not a JavaScript class
  • (it’s mostly the stuff that programmers have to do that isn’t actually programming)

Today’s Topics

• a quick intro to version control with git and github
• a new way of submitting labs
• review
• a few more commands
• more about writing shell scripts

However, There’s One Wrinkle

The lab machines. Let’s check if git is installed. Type the following in terminal (it doesn’t matter what directory you’re in, and ignore the $ prompt).

$ git --version
git version 1.7.3.2

So, Is Git Installed? IF NOT LET ME KNOW!!!!

Version Control!
