Using Git GUI with Eclipse

Here's my next set of screencasts showing how I use git and git gui in particular with my Eclipse projects. There are two parts. The first shows how to set up a workspace based on a git clone repository, i.e. copying a remote repository to your local machine and setting up an Eclipse workspace for that repository. The second part is how I commit and push my changes to the remote server as I develop code. Hope this is useful.

BTW, This is best viewed by clicking on the YouTube link and watching it full screen in HD mode.

Part 1 - Creating your Workspace

Part 2 - Committing and pushing a code change

apt-get install git-gui

and I was up and running on my ubuntu. One last remark: What about egit? Any experience with this one?

Doug Schaefer said...

Some day I hope egit does all this. But for now, it doesn't and that's why I'm using git gui.

Hey Doug, Carole says that Git is a rude word in British!

Doug Schaefer said...

LOL. How often does she call you that ;)?

Nice post on git & eclipse. However I am most interested in how you did the screencast. Are these screencasts done using Jing as you posted on earlier? What is the thing that your pausing? Are you recording a VM?

Doug Schaefer said...

Yes, it's Jing.
