Use to link your SLAC accounts to GitHub
What do we use GitHub for?
While production versions of operations software live in ~/opsTools, they also remotely live on GitHub, in the SLAC GitHub organization called SLAC Lab. Access to it isn't granted automatically, but it's pretty easy to get!
Step-by-step guide
- If you don't have a GitHub account, make one
- Send your username to Brian Van Klaveren (email bvan@slac.stanford.edu or ping brianv on Slack) asking for access
- Note: This step has very high potential to end up out of date if someone else ends up managing SLAC Lab, so keep that in mind.

- Navigate over to the ops team on SLAC Lab and request to join
- Back on an OPI (or SSHed in), Run "set_profile [YOUR USERNAME]" then ssh into mcclogin
- From there, ssh into rhel6-64
- From there, cat your ssh key
- Copy the entire output (starts with ssh-rsa and ends with your email address).
- Back on GitHub, go to your settings
- And add a new SSH key
Title it something descriptive, paste in the output you got from cat, and save it!
