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!
