Working with git

Forking - branching - changing - pushing - pull requesting

This is a general workflow in how to work on your own fork (copy) of the current repo and request changes through a pull request: NOTE: if you already did these steps in the past, start from the git fetch upstream command.

Make a fork of this repository, using the fork button.
Open a terminal and clone your fork using:
```
  git clone https://github.com/elixir-europe-training/ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH.git
  cd ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH 
```
NOTE: Make sure you clone the fork and not the original elixir-europe-training/ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH one.

Keep your fork up to date (IMPORTANT!).

  git remote add upstream https://github.com/elixir-europe-training/ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH.git
  git fetch upstream
  git checkout main (if you are not already on the main branch, check with `git branch`)
  git pull upstream main

Create a new branch named after your feature/edit.
```
  git checkout -b 'FEATURE_NAME'
```
Make the changes you want to make using an editor of choice
Save.
Open terminal and stage your changes:
```
  git add .
```

Committing changes

  git commit -m "Changing the tool-resource file"

Pushing you changes to your fork
```
  git push origin 'FEATURE_NAME'
```
Go to https://github.com/elixir-europe-training/ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH and click on Compare & pull request
Open the pull request an describe your changes.
Wait for review by other editors. Editors that are responsible for the sections you make changes to will be assigned as reviewer automatically.

The advantage of working locally: previewing your changes through your web browser

The website is build on GitHub using Jekyll, a simple, static site generator based on ruby. When you have a local copy cloned onto your computer, it is possible to generate the website based on this repo. This makes it possible to preview changes live, every time you save a file from within the GitHub ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH repo. Follow these steps to deploy the website based on your local clone (copy) of the ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH repo:

Make sure you have cloned the ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH repo:

git clone https://github.com/elixir-europe-training/ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH.git
cd ELIXIR-Training-SPLASH

To run the website locally, you can either use Docker or use Jekyll directly after installing various dependencies.

Run using Docker compose

See the instructions in the README file at the root of this repository.

Run using Jekyll directly

If not already present on your machine, install ruby. Note that incompatibility issues may arise with ruby 3.0.0 (released 25.12.20) or newer versions.
Install Jekyll If you have never installed or run a Jekyll site locally on your computer, follow these instructions to install Jekyll:
- Install Jekyll on MacOS/Ubuntu/Other_Linux/Windows: https://jekyllrb.com/docs/installation/
Install Bundler and Jekyll
```
 gem install jekyll
 bundle install
```
deploy website
```
 bundle exec jekyll serve
```
