The Github Part

This assumes a GitHub account and access to SLAC Lab.

  1. Find the repo on SLAC Lab
  2. Click "Fork" in the upper right corner. In the window that pops up, click the link that says [Your User Name]/devPanel (Mine says that I've already forked it, but yours should ask you where you want to fork it)
  3. AnchorforklinkforklinkIt should automatically redirect you to your new GitHub fork. From there, click the green "Clone or Download" button and copy the ssh path. If you see what looks like a URL, click the blue "Use SSH" link right above it

titleInstructions for lcls-srv01...
  1. On lcls-srv01 in a terminal (it's the default when you open a terminal on an OPI), type "set_profile [Your Username]". This should take you to your personal physics directory. Make a new devPanel subdirectory

  2. In that subdirectory, run "git init"

  3. Still in that subdirectory, type "home/physics/mgibbs/link_repo_to_github/link_repo_to_github.sh -i" and follow the prompts using the image below as a guide (you will need to change the remote path url to git@github.com:<your GitHub name>/<repo name>.git). You'll get slightly different messages since I've already run this before.

    Info
    titleWhat is AFS?

    It's the file system that exists in mcclogin and rhel6-64. You can't access it from lcls-srv01 (the physics account that launches when you launch a terminal from an OPI), but you can think about it like another directory tree that you have to ssh into to see.

  4. Type "git pull origin master" and type in your password when prompted (again, messages will be slightly different since I've done this before)

titleInstructions for bypassing lcls-srv01...
  • SSH into one of the SLAC machines that have internet access (like rhel6-64)
  • Navigate to wherever you want your personal copy of the repo to live (I like to organize my stuff, so I have a "gitRepos" folder where all my projects live, but it's up to you!)

 

...

  • Run "git clone [the link from step 3]". Now your copy lives in AFS space and should be accessible from other machines that access to AFS, like mcclogin
