You need to have a version of Git greater or equal to 1.7.10, thus type:

git --version

and if the version number displayed is 1.7.10 or greater everything is OK, otherwise you need to install a more recent version.

The W-phase package is hosted as a github repository. To clone the W-phase repository:

git clone https://github.com/eost/wphase.git wphase_package

If you have an error like

error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://github.com/eost/wphase.git/info/refs

please make sure to update git to version 1.7.10 or later (see above), otherwise use

git clone https://yourusername@github.com/eost/wphase.git wphase_package

• To update your local copy of the W-phase repository (pull changes from the master branch, i.e., stable version)

cd /to/the/wphase/directory/
git pull origin master

• To update your local copy of the W-phase repository (pull changes from the develop branch)

cd /to/the/wphase/directory/
git pull origin develop

• To see the last commit on each branch, you can run

git branch -v
* develop 308999e Enable python3 compatibility in bin/traces_regional.py (...)
  master  2f33728 Correction numero de version -> r249

Notice the * character that prefixes the develop branch: it indicates the branch that you currently have checked out.

• To switch from one branch to another

git checkout master

or

git checkout develop

• make some changes to any file you want using your favorite editor (in the line below we use vi as an example)

vi some_file.c

• You may want to check what has changed (and thus that will be committed), you can type one or both of these two commands:

git status
git diff

• To prepare the content staged for the next commit, use:

git add files_for_the_next_commit

• You can then commit staged changes locally, adding a short message (one line) explaining what you have changed

git commit -m "log message describing the changes"

• You can then push your changes to your GitHub fork

git push origin develop

• To merge develop into the master branch

git checkout master
git merge develop
