GitIssueActivity

Activity for practicing with git and issues on GitHub.

For this activity, the students will practice making changes to a GitHub repository. The repository has a text file that has been "twiddled" - meaning that random words have had their characters randomly rearranged, and considered to be issues to be fixed.

The students will:

  1. Fork the repository
  2. Clone the repository
  3. Add the original repository as an upstream remote
  4. Create a fix-license-typos branch, and switch to that branch
  5. Repeat as often as possible during the class:
    1. Assign themselves to an issue (e.g. issue #42)
    2. Edit the LICENSE file to correct the issue
    3. Add the change
    4. Pull any changes that have ocurred since their last pull, and correct merge conflicts
    5. Commit the change, with a message describing the change (include line number and correction, e.g. Correct misspelling, line 1: UGN -> GNU )
    6. Push the change
    7. Make a pull request to have their change merged into the original repository, including in the pull request text a notation that it closes the assigned issue (e.g. Closes #42)

The misspellings were generated by the twiddle.py program from git-twiddler, and then entered as issues by the report.py program (from this git-twiddler fork currently waiting for this pull request to be merged.)
