Sharing source through usb key and git

Aims :
Set up a git environment with for two desktops sharing source code through USB

Warning : all those commands have to be tested  before use. Check git documentation for more explanations.

git env creation on USB Key

using git-bash, in the repository folder do

$ git --bare init

git env creation on one desktop

using git-bash, in the source folder  do

$ git init

manage ignored ressources
create a .gitignore

$ git add .gitignore

$ git commit -m "ignored resource"

avoid conversion from LF to CRLF

$ git config core.autocrlf false 

$ git config --global user.name "yourName"

$ git config --global user.email yourEmail

commit your existing sources

$ git add --all

$ git commit -m "initial commit"

Add a remote repository (assuming the drive is f)

$ git remote add origin /f/path/to/repo/

Push sources

$ git push origin master

On the second desktop

using git-bash, in the source folder  do

$ git init

$ git remote add origin /f/path/to/repo/

pull sources

$ git pull origin master 

Tips

if you want to overide local changes

$ git fetch origin master

$ git reset --hard FETCH_HEAD

at this point local untrack file and dir still exists (see git clean)
