Selenium Integration with Git and GitHub

In this post we will discuss about following things:

What do you mean by CM and what is SCM tool?

Why do we use SCM tools and advantages

What is Git and GitHub?

Basic Architecture

Steps to work with Git and GitHub

How to install Git

Demo – execute different commands using cmd

What is CM and what are diff SCM tool?

Configuration management(CM) is managing the configuration of all of the project's key products and
assets.

SCM stands for Source Code Management is an integral part of any project in the IT world.

Important component in DeveOps culture.

Source Code Management or Version Control Systems in any project ensure all the members of a team
stay on top of the source code changes.

SCM practices include revision control and the establishment of baselines.

Top SCM Tools:

MS Team Foundation Server (TFS):

Kallithea - Open Source

GitLab - Continuous Integration (CI), Continuous Delivery (CD) is an integral part of GitLab

Bitbucket Server:

Subversion (SVN):

Git and GitHub

Why do we use version control System?

Collaboration- Without a SCM in place, you're probably working together in a shared folder on the same
set of files. It's extremely error prone, someone will overwrite someone else's changes. With a SCM,
everybody on the team is able to work absolutely freely - on any file at any time.

Storing Versions

Restoring Previous Versions

Understanding What Happened: Every time you save a new version of your project, your SCM requires
you to provide a short description of what was changed. This helps you understand how your project
evolved between versions.

Backup

Now lets talk about Git and GitHub

Git and GitHub

Git – initially developed by Linus Torvalds is a version control system.

Git is a version control system that lets you manage and keep track of your source code history.

GitHub is a cloud-based hosting service that lets you manage Git repositories.

Different Terminologies with GitHub

Repository: You can simply, treat it as a storage area of your workplace that contains all your
documentation files and the history of changes.

Clone: Clones are literally clones (copies) of a repository that sit on the developer’s computer instead of
a server elsewhere.

Commit: Whatever the changes you make in your files will come under commit. Every change is saved
under a particular name or ID which is also called “revision”.

Push: Pushing refers to sending your committed changes to a remote repository such as GitHub.com.

Pull Request: If you have made changes in code/script, to show the other collaborators you send a pull
request.

Fork: It is a copy of other's repository in your account in which you can make changes and it won't affect
the original code.

Branching: When you extract a portion /section of code from the main or remote track of your software,
then it is called ‘branch' and the process is known as Branching.

Fetch: Fetching refers to getting the latest changes from an online repository (like GitHub.com) without
merging them in.

Merge: Merging takes the changes from one branch (in the same repository or from a fork), and applies
them into another.

git clone [url]

Example: navigate to your repo path where you want to clone and write below command in cmd

git clone https://github.com/hverma22/Test2

4. git add

This command adds a file to the staging area.

git add [file]

Example:

git add [file]

git add .

5. git commit

git commit -m “[commit message]”

This command records or snapshots the file permanently in the version history.

Example:

git commit -m “First Commit”

6. git diff
This command shows the file differences which are not yet staged.

Example:

git diff –-staged

git diff [first branch] [second branch]

7. git reset

git reset [file]

git reset [commit]

git reset –hard [commit]

8. git status

git status

This command lists all the files that have to be committed.

9. git rm

This command deletes the file from your working directory and stages the deletion.

git rm [file]

10. git branch

git branch

This command lists all the local branches in the current repository.

Example:

git master
11. git log

git log

This command is used to list the version history for the current branch.

Example:

git log --online

12. git merge

git merge [branch name]

This command merges the specified branch’s history into the current branch.

13. git remote add [variable name] [Remote Server Link]

This command is used to connect your local repository to the remote server.

Example:

git remote add origin https://github.com/hverma22/Test5

git push [variable name] master

This command sends the committed changes of master branch to your remote repository.

Example:

git show [commit]

This command shows the metadata and content changes of the specified commit.

Command: git show <ChangeID>:<FilePath>

Example:
