My First Java Code Commit to GitHub. For now I have started with a simple class and will keep adding more classes as I get time – ListPerformanceTestSimple.java
https://github.com/ashikuzzaman/javaapichecks
I had to do some trial and error before finally all the setups worked in my Ubuntu box. You can save the trial and error time if you follow the steps below that I performed –
1. Register a github account – https://github.com/
2. create a repository – look at top right + sign after you log in.
3. setup authentication from github to git. You can read through this article if you need some help or simply execute the commands that I typed below in sequence – https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git/#next-steps-authenticating-with-github-from-git or http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Getting-a-Git-Repository
3a. $ git config –global user.name “ashikuzzaman”
3b. $ git config –global user.email “ashikuzzaman@gmail.com“
3c. $ git config –global core.editor gedit
3d. $ git config –list
3e. $ git log
4. Clone your repository in your local workspace – $ git clone https://github.com/ashikuzzaman/javaapichecks.git
5. Add a new .java file, locally compile and run. For example, javac -d . ListPerformanceTestSimple.java
6. $ git add ListPerformanceTestSimple.java
7. $ git status
8. $ git commit -m “my first commit from command line to github”
9. $ git push origin master
