Base upstream repository for CSCI 366 - Systems Programming

CSCI 366 - Systems Programming

This is the base upstream repository for CSCI 366. It contains homeworks as well as the class project information.

Getting Your Private Copy (Clone)

Rather than the traditional Forking model, we are going to use a Copy model for the class.

Please use the following steps to create a private version of this repo for your work:

• Create a private repository in your own account by
  • Going to https://github.com/new
  • Enter the name csci-366-fall2020-private
  • Select Private
  • Navigate to the Settings -> Manage Access section
  • Add 1cg as a collaborator
• Now run the following git commands, substituting your Github user name and NetID where required:

$ git clone https://github.com/msu/csci-366-fall2020.git csci-366-fall2020-private
$ cd csci-366-fall2020-private
$ git remote set-url origin [e-mail]:<YOUR GITHUB USER NAME>/csci-366-fall2020-private.git
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/msu/csci-366-fall2020.git

Whew! You now have a private copy of the repository on github. You can push and pull to this repository and branch with the standard git pull and git push commands.

When you want to get an update from the public class repository you can run this command:

$ git pull upstream master

Getting Your Public Copy & Registering (Fork)

Next, please fork this repository to your personal account. You will now have two copies of the project, one public and one private.

The private repository will be used for your work and our grading.

The public repository can be used for contibuting back to the class project. DO NOT PUSH WORK CODE TO THIS REPOSITORY

I highly recommend against cloning the public respoitory to your local system, to avoid confusion between the two. You can edit files in the public repository via the web interface, and that will be much safer.

Please add a file to /repos named

<YOUR NET ID>.txt

with the git URL of your private repository, e.g.

[e-mail]:1cg/csci-366-fall2020-private.git

And then create a pull request against this repository.

We will accept the pull request, and your private work repo will be registered for the class at that point.

Homeworks

Each homework has it's own directory (/hwk0, /hwk1, etc.). Please do your work in the homework directory

Project: BattleBit

You will implement a simplified, networked version of the gaming classic BattleShip.
