"git"
Git is really handy for publishing and sharing code. I found
it a little difficult to get into, so here's a script that
demonstrates a method (maybe not the best method, but it works
for me) of managing a repository in Git. It doesn't have any
branching or fancy stuff, but I don't need that right now.
This example code assumes you have set up your account at github.com
and created repositories through the web interface and dealt with the
new token string authentication stuff. Creating repositories through
the web interface is handy because it lets you specify the license
you want with just a couple of clicks. Oh - and, you want to create the
minimal README.md file in the web interface, because this script
updates that file to demonstrate that the pushes actually work.
