Readme.md: Command fixes for cloning trunk and submodules
gotwig opened this issue · comments
The commands described in the Readme.md to build an environment for Turbulenz are incomplete or wrong.
1: Replace
$ git clone git@github.com:turbulenz/turbulenz_engine.git
with
$ git clone https://github.com/turbulenz/turbulenz_engine.git
for less ssh key issues (I got a few because of missing write rights?)
2: Try to improve the commands, or add new commands for gettings the submodules needed to build turbulenz:
Currently I get an error like
| $ git submodule update --init
Cloning to 'external/definitelytyped'...
The authenticity of host 'github.com (204.232.175.90)' can't be established.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes

Now, I do not know if the command to init the submodules does automaticly download the submodules or not? In fact for me, it doesn't, if you look at my log.
To fix this, I tried to modify the URL's in .gitmodules, but the HTTPS variants don't work for me.
Maybe add instructions to just download the submodules via git clone for each one, and than doing git submodules init, to init them.
Sounds like you don't have your SSH keys setup correctly with your github account. Follow this guide: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys
You shouldn't need any additional permissions to clone the repositories. It just seems git can't verify you on your machine.
hm, but why do users have to setup their github account, just to download the code :/?
I am going to test out the new fix, with checking out in only read mode.
Thanks, this issue is fixed.
