You know I like it when the old boxes still prove themselves to be useful.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

"Take the farking board and program it!"
That is what the HW guy tells me all the time.

I am afraid that was the attitude of the previous software guy. Hardware did throw their toys and changes were made...

Hey man, that's not my attitude!
It is... 'company organization'

And he is right. Use an emulator until the hardware is ready and then go for it.

Emulator, of what, I could run the code as I am doing in a V.M. with no idea of what the hardware is doing...

A configurable emulator of the processor they will be using. It may also be safe to assume that there will be some memory. Enough to start developing and then you add to and improve the configuration as the specs come rolling in. Of course that's all just gray theory if you don't have any emulator at all.

It seems you lack a proper manager. Been there, done that, would be still doing that if I wasn't prone to take risks.

Sooo - Monday?
And this deserves a post in the Lounge???
I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended.

So I ask of your experience - if any...
Moving from TFS to Git...
Tips and tricks?

Can you elaborate on that my friend Giskard?

Slight;y joking - takes a complete mind set shift ot get your head around the differences. At least it did for a thicko like me.

Privately I'm using git, but at work we had TFS, but now they are talking about to move on... I just try to figure out how bad it will be...

don't panic.
commit and push to your main repository often (in a branch on github or bitbucket for example)
find a proper workflow that work for you (there seems to be many different ways to do the same thing).
rebase is evil.
merge from main branches to your local branch often (reduce the conflit resolving pains)
use pull-requests.
I'd rather be phishing!
|
|
|
|
|
Use a decent app (I use SmartGit – Git Client and love it.)
As others have said elsewhere, learn the difference between a server-based repo (TFS) and a distributed repo (Git). Understanding that will save you a lot of confusion.
Learn/practice branching, merging and stashing with Git with a dummy project.

I didn't ask what Git is or how to use, but asked about moving an existing project (of enterprise size) to git...

Sounds like the beginning of a wonderfully useful article - let us know when you post it!
