## Quick guide to resume your work after rebooting the VM
|
|
|
|
If you are using HTTPS remotes, you might want to run `git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=3600'` before cloning: this way you will have to input your username and password only after 1 hour without interacting with your remote.
|
|
|
|
1. `cd ~`
|
|
2. `git clone --recurse-submodules <STUDENT_REPO_URL> [<LOCAL_CLONE_DIR>]`
|
|
- by default, if you don't specify `<LOCAL_CLONE_DIR>` the local clone will be in `~/NN/`, if for any reason, during the first exercise you used a different name or path, make sure to replicate the one you used previously, or the layers configuration you committed previously will be incorrect;
|
|
|
|
## Quick guide to pull new exercise instructions
|
|
|
|
It is sufficient to run the following script (**from the root of your repository**):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd <STUDENT_REPO_ROOT>
|
|
scripts/update_from_course_upstream.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you could [download the script from your browser][update_from_course_upstream] to `/tmp/`, and then run it **from the root of your repository**:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd <STUDENT_REPO_ROOT>
|
|
bash /tmp/update_from_course_upstream.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Quick guide to submit the exercise assignment
|
|
|
|
1. `git commit` - remember to *add* new files
|
|
2. `git push`
|
|
3. Create tag for submission in GitLab - format `ExNN_submissionN`
|
|
4. `git push --tags`
|
|
5. Submit a link to the tag on the corresponding assignment in [Moodle][moodle.COMP.CE.460]

## How to use SSH remotes
|
|
|
|
Using HTTPS remotes becomes quickly frustrating as it requires to input your credentials several times, even multiple times for a single `git` command.
|
|
|
|
Read [Using a persistent SSH key for project access][semipermanent-ssh-keys] for tips on how to securely use a semipermanent `git` profile with SSH keys for the shared VM environment of the course.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: If you choose to setup access through SSH keys, remember to use the SSH remote URL to clone your student repository and for the `course_upstream` remote.
|
|
|
|
If you decide to use HTTPS remotes, you might want to run `git config --global credential.helper 'cache --timeout=3600'` before cloning: this way you will have to input your username and password only after 1 hour without interacting with your remote.
