Typical Git workflow

Introduction

Normal workflow is to develop and check in on a branch, then once everything is happy, merge the branch back into the master. 

Local repository consists of three "trees" maintained by git. the first one is your Working Directory which holds the actual files.The second one is the Index which acts as a staging

area and finally theHEAD which points to the last commit you've made.

3) edit files
4) add/commit changes to local machine
5) get back in sync with changes commited by others
6) push branch to remote git repository
7) merge local branch into local master
8) push local master to remote git repostiory

For the TATAPowersed SDK we can set REPO and BRANCH as below:

REPO=git@github.com:RidgeRun/tata-sdk-dm36x
BRANCH=fixed-ip-address

1) Get a local copy of the code

git clone $REPO.git tatasdk

OR

git clone $REPO.git tatasdk

Creating the Working copy of the local repository by running the command:

git clone path/to/repository
