During the last class session I’ll ask everyone to provide links to their work on Github. This in-class exercise is intended to help everyone take a look at past work that might need to be cleaned up or merged.
- With your final project partner, look at each other’s open pull requests.
- Merge your partner’s pull requests if they need to be merged.
- Request changes if it looks like they still have issues.
- Go to the people page and find your partner’s entry. You should see:
- First post (either including Reflection On The Class So Far, or a separate post with this first reflection)
- First focused reflection
- Clicky Turtlehack
- CSV files
If you don’t see a post, it could be because:
- their name in the
_config.yaml
file doesn’t match their author name - their post isn’t in the
_posts
folder - their post isn’t a
.md
file - their post’s filename doesn’t have a
YYYY-MM-DD-
at the beginning
Or a few other, related reasons. If you can, figure out which one might be the case.
- Quickly click each post to see whether you can access it. If you end up on somone else’s post, they likely didn’t include their github username in the file, which means their post URL is the same as that other person’s.
- If their name isn’t correctly displayed on the post, it could be because they didn’t Make A Name for Themselves, or the author name might not match up.
If you find any issues, Open a single Github Issue listing what you’ve found. This does not need to be comprehensive, especially if there are a lot of issues. Use #
to reference Pull Requests if applicable.
Here is an example issue.
This will help you and your partner work towards cleaning up your Github history.
