GitHub Setup

• 1. Create a fork of https://github.com/Xilinx/XRT.git using XRT GitHub page. This fork will be called origin in git parlance. upstream refers to the location where you forked from.
• It will be something like "https://github.com//XRT.git"
• 1. Clone the forked repository to local server
• 1. git clone https://github.com//XRT.git
• 1. Configure your git remote

GitHub Development Model

• Make changes; test changes; commit to your local repository
• : Squash your change history if you wish by rebase your changes: git rebase -i origin/master
• push the changes to your fork on GitHub into the master branch.
• git push origin master
• Go back to GitHub page and create Pull Request. This will show up on upstream at https://github.com/Xilinx/XRT.git
• Admins review the change and commit them to upstream
• Sync your origin with latest changes in upstream for master branch
• git pull --rebase upstream master
• git push origin master
