2. Project management

Task

  • Build a personal site describing you and your final project.
  • Upload it to the class archive.
  • Work through a git tutorial.

Applying what I learned: The documentation process

  • I changed the password of my fablabs.io account

  • login to Gitlab with my fablabs.io account

  • Installed git to control the versioning of my project from git-scm.com

  • I installed Notepad++ from notepad-plus-plus

  • register my email linked to fablabs.io

  • I used in the “GITBASH” the commands:

git config –-global user.name “marcoantonio.vilca” (for setting my user name) 
git config -–global user.email “mvilcamam@unsa.edu.pe” (for setting my email)
  • I created a folder on my computer to clone the files by default in my gitlab account.

  • Generate and copy the link key between my FABACADEMY2022 folder and gitlab. I used in the “GITBASH” the commands:
ssh-keygen -t rsa -C “mvilcamam@unsa.edu.pe” (I geneated my SSH key)
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (saw my keygen)
clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub (I copied the key)

  • Locate in Git bash the created folder “FABACADEMY2022/marcoantonio-vilca”

  • I copied the key generated in my gitlab account, in preferences/SSH keys

  • After that with the commands ls and cd I located myself in the folder created on my PC to clone the repo.

  • I learned how to use the:

``` git status (command lets us know which changes are ready to be commited)

git pull (allows us to download the last copy of the repository)

git add . (allows us to upload all the files at once which are shown in green colour)

git commit -m”name” (name the last update to know what data changed)

git push commands (to upload to the repository) ```

  • To do all the changes in the md files I have used Markdown and the text editor Notepad++

  • For resizing images I use the app for windows Image Resizer for Windows 10 from the Microsoft Store.
