To participate, you'll need to:
- get developer access for Git/Gerrit/Wikimedia Labs
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access
- install a SIP client ("Blink and CSipSimple for Android are
recommended and tested (with HD audio); I'll provide SIP dial-in")
- install vncviewer
- ensure you can ssh from a terminal
Marcin will cover:
Basics:
setting up Git submitting a patch commenting on a patch in Gerrit merging a patch in Gerrit enough Git internals not to get lost
Branching:
local branch, making, working & pushing remote branch & git-review to that remote branch
Troubleshooting:
cherrypick changes between branches amending (rebase vs multiple commit) squashing work from a branch into a commit and pushing it resolve merge conflicts
Thanks, Marcin!
