[upbeat orbit]

Is that the repo? Average-temperature-checker?

[shrewd verge]

yes

[upbeat orbit]

ok open it

Is it empty?

Is there any files in it?

[shrewd verge]

nope

i tried the steps given by gitub but nothing happened

[upbeat orbit]

ok so it should show instructions on how to commit to your files to your repo

Can you show the steps please?

[upbeat orbit]

ok which one did you do and where did you do them in your computer?

[shrewd verge]

the later one...after initializing git in the folder from git

[upbeat orbit]

yea you probably forgotten to git add and git commit on your local machine

[shrewd verge]

i did it

[upbeat orbit]

show me

run git status

[shrewd verge]

ok wait

i did it but doesnt show in git status

[upbeat orbit]

yea thats not added yet. The message says these files are not tracked and you have to use git add

run git add .

and hit enter

[shrewd verge]

i dont want to add everything

[upbeat orbit]

ok what do you wanna add?

[shrewd verge]

project is very small

one module

with few lines

[upbeat orbit]

which file is that?

[shrewd verge]

it is commited i think

[upbeat orbit]

what is the filename that you think is committed?

[upbeat orbit]

type ls and show me the output

[shrewd verge]

average temperature something like this

how to check commits

[upbeat orbit]

type git log and hit enter

[shrewd verge]

it is committed @upbeat orbit

now what

u there?

[upbeat orbit]

type git show --name-only c96970 and hit enter

and show me the output for git log -p -2

[shrewd verge]

some little errors in the name

[upbeat orbit]

ok so the file is word_frequency_counter.py. Is that right?

[shrewd verge]

yes

how can i change the name

is it going to show int he github too?

[upbeat orbit]

Show me git remote -v

[upbeat orbit]

what error in the name?

[shrewd verge]

it should be temperature freq counter

[upbeat orbit]

Are you referring to the file name? Type ls and show me the output

[upbeat orbit]

ok that looks configured.

[upbeat orbit]

the "temperature freq counter" is not there.

Double check and confirm you are referring to the correct file before its pushed to your repo

[shrewd verge]

i want to change the name to > temperature freq counter

[upbeat orbit]

oh ok. Then just rename the word_frequency_counter.py file to the new filename

let me know when you've done the rename

[shrewd verge]

its done

[upbeat orbit]

ok

[upbeat orbit]

show me in ls

[upbeat orbit]

right. So next run the following commands:
git add temp_frequency_counter.py
git commit -m "Changed filename"
git push -u origin main

[upbeat orbit]

you forgot the main after origin

[shrewd verge]

still nothing happene in the github

[upbeat orbit]

show me what happens after you ran git push

[shrewd verge]

oh..so it is running different account

[upbeat orbit]

I need to see the output after you ran git push -u origin main please

[upbeat orbit]

oh ok. its denied.

[shrewd verge]

its my siblings account

i want to add in ajaylodhi20

[upbeat orbit]

you guys are sharing the same PC?

[shrewd verge]

she doesnt use github for now...i use it mostly

[upbeat orbit]

should consider not sharing the same user account at least on the shared PC

[shrewd verge]

okay

so what should i do

[upbeat orbit]

hmmm

IMO, I really don't like this shared setup on one user account

Can you backup your files onto a thumbdrive and then create a separate new user account for yourself?

[shrewd verge]

like when the pc starts..there?

[upbeat orbit]

Do you know how to set up a user account?

[shrewd verge]

no

cant i change here

[upbeat orbit]

cuz you're sharing your accounts with your sibling, the configuration could get messed up

[shrewd verge]

i mean ...can i remove my sibling's account for now

[upbeat orbit]

and if your sibling wants to use?

they would need to re-add back in, no?

[shrewd verge]

i will create a new user account

[upbeat orbit]

yea thats better

[shrewd verge]

so..

[upbeat orbit]

oh you mean, the new user account is for your sibling?

[shrewd verge]

yes

[upbeat orbit]

oh alright then

you'll have to run git config

wait I forgot the full command

oh hang on...

there's actually 1 additional step before git config

you need to set up credentials on your local machine to push to github

did you set up ssh keys?

or git credential manager?

@shrewd verge

[shrewd verge]

yes, from pycharm

[upbeat orbit]

how did you set up from pycharm?

[upbeat orbit]

If you go to here https://github.com/settings/keys does it show any SSH keys?

[upbeat orbit]

interesting. Didn't know Pycharm can do this

[shrewd verge]

will this work?

or do i need ssh key for git

[upbeat orbit]

This shows that its already configured for git and to github.com

Can you show me a full screenshot of your pycharm?

There could already be a way to quickly and easily push your commits to github without running commands

[upbeat orbit]

close that

It should show something like this

Look for this icon

[upbeat orbit]

there we go

Click the checkbox next to the file

[shrewd verge]

and?

[upbeat orbit]

Oh wait... Double check if the file is properly renamed to what you wanted

[upbeat orbit]

Otherwise, expand the "Unversioned Files" to see if the renamed file is there

If its not properly renamed, rename it first and then check the checkbox in "Changes"

Then at the bottom, where you see Commit Message. Enter a commit message like "Changed word_frequency_counter.py to temperature counter file" or whatever you want.

Then click "Commit and Push"

@shrewd verge ?

[shrewd verge]

i renamed the wrong file

[upbeat orbit]

ok

ping me when you're ready

[shrewd verge]

i want to delete this and add the new renamed file

@upbeat orbit

[upbeat orbit]

Its not in the "Unversioned Files" list?

[shrewd verge]

its inside one more folder..

i.e. LIST

[upbeat orbit]

I can see LIST is in the current project folder. You could move the file from LIST and to the root of the project folder and then rename the file in Pycharm

[upbeat orbit]

Oh but its already renamed here so... just move the file to the project root folder

Then check the checkbox in the "Unversioned File" for specifically that file

[shrewd verge]

i committed but still nothing happened in the github

i got to go

[upbeat orbit]

Did you click "Commit and Push"?

[shrewd verge]

yes

[upbeat orbit]

What happened after that? Did anything pop up? Notification? some git log?

But if you have to go, just go. Come back and open a new help thread when you need it

[shrewd verge]

i clicked on commit instead of commit and push

wait

this came

are all going to be pushed if i clicked on the push?

[upbeat orbit]

thats kinda nice looking. What does it say if you click on the first "my project" in that list on the left?

[shrewd verge]

done

[upbeat orbit]

good job

[shrewd verge]

i will do rest of the settings later

thank you

bye

[upbeat orbit]

np
