Commit Time Tests
Thanks for helping us with this project! We're looking to get 2 durations from you:
- Duration of making a commit in the CLI
- Duration of making a commit in GitKraken
What you need
- Please first fork this repo on GitHub
- Clone your fork to your local machine (it's okay to use GK)
- Have a text editor handy (VS Code, Atom, Notepad++ etc)
- Locate the stopwatch feature on your phone or any other app
Test 1: Make a commit in the CLI
Please follow these instructions for your first time test. Don't start until you have forked and cloned the repo.
- Start your timer
- Launch the CLI
- Use the cd command to change directory to where your repo is located. For example, I used
cd ~/Sites/Commit-Time-Test
- Checkout the
feature
branch - Edit lines 45 and 46 of the index.html
- Fix typo in line 1 of mkdocs.yml so it says GitKraken Documentation
- Answer prompt on music.md file
- Stage changes from index.html, mkdocs.yml, and music.md using
git add
command - Commit changes using
git commit
command. Commit message: "Personalized bio and fixed typo" Commit description: "Updated the name and bio in the index.html file, shared a favorite song, and changed GitCrack to GitKraken. - Stop timer and write down duration.
PAUSE HERE!!
Do 1 of the following before moving on to Test 2
- Delete local repo and re-clone
- Hard reset feature branch in GK to remove commit from Test 1.
