Development Environment

Git (SCCM)

Project Ivo uses Git for Software Change and Configuration Management (SCCM), in development tasks. More information about Git is available at git-scm.com

Getting Started with Git

For basic usage instructions about Git, refer to the Getting Started section, within the Pro Git book.

A "cheat sheet" is available, online, along with the Git reference documentation. The Heroku Git Cheat Sheet is available in PDF format, suitable for offline use.

Git - Platform-Specific Notes and Instructions

Git on Linux Platforms

Installation instructions for Git on Linux will vary, according to administrator preferences (upstream package or source package) and Linux distributions' own packaging methodologies.

Git on Ubuntu

There is a page for Ubuntu community documentation about Git, providing instructions about installing Git for command-line usage.

Furthermore, that page provides instructions for installing the gitosis server, on Ubuntu, for Git repository hosting. Gitosis would provide some additional support for distributed SCCM models.

The page also provides instructions for installing ViewGit for web-based repository browsing of local Git repositories, using Apache HTTPD and PHP. With some further configuration, ViewGit may be installed under other HTTP server models, such as nginx. (See also: PHP via FastCGi with Nginx)

Git on Microsoft Windows Platforms

Git users on Microsoft Windows platforms may wish to install Tortoise Git

Git on Mobile Platforms: iPad, iPhone

• iPad
  • The CodeNavigator app by Guangzhen Li - available in Lite and Full editions, via the iTunes Store.

Git on Mobile Platforms: Android
