2. Commit all current works and push to the upstream

   git add -A
   git commit -a
   git push origin master
   

   • If you are working at the branch other than the master branch

     git pull origin master
     git checkout master
     git merge current_working_branch_name
     

3. Pull request

   git add -A
   git commit -a
   git push origin harakonan
   

   • harakonan is the name of my working branch

   • Pull request on the github page after the push

   • For the first time, you need to create a working branch

     git checkout -b harakonan

5. latexdiff-vc

   1. Compare previous commit with current file

      latexdiff-vc -e utf8 --git --flatten --force -d diff -r HEAD file_name.tex
      

Format conversions

1. md -> tex

   1. Convert md to tex

      md-tex.sh file-name_w/o_extension
      

   2. Convert md to pdf using latex

      md-latex.sh (-l) file-name_w/o_extension
      

      • options
        • -l landscape

   3. Convert md to pdf using uplatex

      md-uplatex.sh (-l) file-name_w/o_extension
      

      • options
        • -l landscape

2. R -> Rnw

   1. Write R file with Rnw commands like chunks and chapter titles

   2. Add # before \, <<, and @ to execute as an R file

   3. Paste contents of R file between \maketitle{} and \end{document} in the Rnw file

   4. Remove # before \, <<, and @

      • Next code will do this and open Rnw file with RStudio

        r-rnw.sh file-name_w/o_extension
        

   5. Compile Rnw file in RStudio
