— from this point we’ll be using GitHub for new materials and assignments. You can find the setup guide here (we will also do it during classes).

Troubleshooting / Common problems

For submitting assignments once we learn GitHub, the key steps are:
1) Have a fork of the course repository.
2) Clone it to your computer.
3) Set a remote path to the original course repository. Use it to pull the new materials.
4) Work on the assignment. Commit it. Push it to your repository fork.

For a more detailed description of the setup check here: Setting up the course repository

Switching system language to something other than Polish in the lab computers:
1) go to Windows settings (Polish “Ustawienia”) – the cogwheel icon.
2) choose Time & Language (Polish “Czas i Język”).
3a) in the menu “Język wyświetlania systemu” check if your preferred language is there.
3b) if it’s not there click “Dodaj język” (with the + symbol) and add your preferred language.
4) you should be able to switch to that language in the dropdown menu above (or possibly it got set when you added it to the list).
 
Stuck in VIM while trying to commit (a rather ugly text editor within CLI):
If you forgot about adding a message to your commit, you might have ended up in VIM. It’s a free, text-editting software that sometimes feels like a trap. But it’s actually telling you that you need to add a message to your commit.
Hit “Esc“, then write: “:q” and press enter to just exit and go back to doing the commit. Or write “:wq” to save the text you now entered and proceed with the commit.
Make sure to add a helpful description that actually covers what the commit did.
