Homework 1

due: 2024-02-09

While you are free to talk with your classmates and ask me / others questions on slack, you are expected to do your own work for these assignments.

1. In class we showed how to clone the repo https://github.com/phy504-sbu-s24/test-repo, make a fork, and push to our fork, and then do a pull-request to ask for your changes to be made to the original repo.

   Add a file of the form username.txt containing your name (replacing username with your Github username) to your fork and issue a pull request for it to be merged into the main repo.

   Note: you might have done this during class time – if so, you are done.

   You don’t need to turn anything in for this – I’ll see the pull-request if you were successful and you will get credit.

2. Create a git repo called hello_C in your github profile and add a hello.cpp with the following content:

   #include <iostream>
   
   int main() {
   
       std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
   
   }
   

   and commit this to your repo.

   Now add a second commit, with a .gitignore telling git to ignore an executable named hello.

   Push this all back to your github repo. Your repo should show 2 commits with descriptive git log messages.

   For your solution, simply e-mail me the URL of your repo.
