Can we set up our git, etc on VM? #3

Closed rhuselid closed 5 years ago

rhuselid commented 5 years ago

For students coming from the CS 120s, can we simply clone the repository we create into our virtual machine? I am used to dealing with git from the command line in a linux environment so that may be easier for me plus I already have all the packages/ipython3 installed there.

Thanks!

Hi @rhuselid . That would be absolutely great! For the first week, I'm encouraging those that are new to Git and GitHub to submit their HW, etc the easy way (direct upload). However, I would eventually like everyone to learn how to properly use a Git client, as you suggest (clone, commit, push, etc.).

Though, I'm not sure what kind of VM you're using. The VM is not necessarily essential to the Git workflow, but you may use one if you would like.

Great, thanks!
