This is part of #120. The goal of this PR is to reorganize the git commands, that are currently scattered around a few pages.

The steps are:

  • Move the minimal configuration instructions
  • Move the remote configuration instructions
  • Move the pushing changes and synching remotes sections.
  • Review what is left of committing.rst

The end result will be:

  • setup.rst with basic setup instructions and links to the commands
  • pullrequest.rst with the bulk of commands that are common to both contributors and core devs in a reasonable order
  • committing.rst with info specific for core devs
  • gitbootcamp.rst with a FAQ-like, ctrl-f-able list of most of the git commands

See also #262.


Reverts python/cpython#111.
Reason: This commit broke the buildbot.

This has been moved after the section about backporting.

The above steps can be executed against any branch you wish to, just replace master
with an appropriate branch name.

All the stuff in this chunk either got added to the bootcamp or it was already there

This is already in the bootcamp (and somewhere else too).

Looks great @ezio-melotti. There's a few small items and then it's ready to merge. Thanks 👍

Since this doc will often be used by contributors that do not have push privileges for CPython, the upstream remote should point to https://github.com/python/cpython in the doc here.

Perhaps a note for committers that they should use what you have here for upstream.

AFAICT, with this URL, they still should be able to fetch. If they try to push they will get an error because they don't have privileges, but that's OK since they are not supposed to push on upstream anyway. Unless I'm missing something, this URL should be fine for both contributors and core devs.

Thanks @willingc and @ezio-melotti. I'm thinking it's fine to leave the upstream using SSH url.
For contributors, they would have to configure SSH key anyway.

``git push``, or ``git fetch``.

``git push``, or ``git fetch``. On Windows, you should also
:ref:`enable autocrlf <autocrlf>`.

NIce! 👍

git clone https://github.com/python/cpython
In order to get a copy of the source code you should first :ref:`fork the
Python repository on GitHub <fork-cpython>` and then :ref:`create a local
clone of your private fork and configure the remotes <clone-your-fork>`.

private I know what you are trying to say here but the fork is public. I think it is better to use ...clone of your fork and configure...

"Personal" is probably the word I was looking for, but "your fork" is clear enough without additional qualifiers.
