[Sumana Harihareswara-2]

Volunteer Marcin Cieslak (saper) is doing the great service of leading a
Git and Gerrit tutorial on May 8th 19:00 UTC. It will be 1-1.5 hours.

If you intend to come, please fill out this poll so saper knows how many
people are coming and what they already know.

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!

I have posted some details regarding SIP/IRC/SSH setup:

  https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Workshop

Please test your SIP connection beforehand!

See you there...

Saper, thanks for your time! Some mysterious git commands actually make
sense for me now :-).

There were 11 people on the call who managed to overcome issues with
SIP networking. Big thanks to alfa, hotel, india, oscar, sierra, tango,
whiskey, xray and zulu for staying for so long and your patience :)

I took almost two hours - but I hope you liked the somewhat experimental
format of the exercise. Please feel free to send your feedback to me
or Sumanah - it was the first time in this format and we need to work
to make it better.

//Saper
