Getting into GIT

This post is old. It may contain broken links, missing images and incorrect information.

My current GIT workflow:

  • Create a local folder in /Users/Jack/GitHub for my local website files
  • Create site within Coda2 and define local/remote file storage
  • Create a GIT repo within BitBucket
  • Follow BitBucket’s command line instructions to initiate GIT on my local folder
  • Use Coda2’s built in publish/SCM to publish local changes to website then commit changes to BitBucket

 

Things I want to do:

  • Create central repo for my CMS where all future CMS refinements occur
  • Push changes from central CMS repo to all sites using my CMS (will probably require automatic database restructuring etc.)
  • Pull central repo into new site builds
  • Other stuff knowledgeable people recommend
