Using Git to get the Code
From Ben's Writing
To get the source, externals and documentation you must first run something similar to this, unless you are on the local system:
git clone http://condor-git.cs.wisc.edu/repos/condor.git source git clone http://condor-git.cs.wisc.edu/repos/condor_docs.git documentation
The next step is to set some personal settings. You will only need to do the following once, even if you make another clone elsewhere.
git config --global user.name "Ben Burnett" git config --global user.email "me@example.com" git config --global core.editor "C:\AutoRun\Executables\emacs-21.3\bin\emacs.exe" git config --global core.autocrlf false git config --global core.safecrlf false git config --global push.default "matching" git config --global color.ui "auto"
This will enable git to link your name and email to your commits. This way, if something goes wrong, other people know who to talk to.
