we'll, my email is in a bunch of places for dendron so i guess i'll just look out for any reach outs from them

this is very odd 😄 might get some new members joining discord

haha, except they won't be able to install dendron if the registry is down

posted an issue in the github https://github.com/eclipse/openvsx/issues/278

haha

looks like its back

(open vsx that is - not the dendron json 😅 )

nice haha

nice to see Dendron on the top row

Alright, I am back gentlemen. Question, what is the workflow for working between 3 machines. So let's say I push my initial repo up to github, clone it on my second and third machine so I have a "up to date," copy on all 3 machines. What is the workflow to maintain continuity between the 3?

Do I commit any time I add new notes then delete my local copy only to clone on other machines again?

You don't need to delete. You can pull from your repository and the other machines will have the newly added content.

@User ah, so I add notes to the machine I am working on, stage and commit the changes, then if I am on my laptop while watching tv on the couch I just do a pull to merge the new notes I just committed?

yes

sometime git may tell you you have conflicts if you have unpushed changes on different machines. it will tell you exactly which lines are conflicting and let you choose which to keep

so a good habit to have is to always push the changes you want to keep so you have it on other machines

So what situation do I use git push versus git commit?

committing is telling git that "these changes I want you to remember. I want to see these changes in other machines as well" but this commit will only exist in the machine where you committed.

so after a commit you need to push that commit so that github (I am assuming you are using github) picks up that change. Now if you pull on other machines from github, you will have the same content you commited because you've pushed your commits to github and it knows it.

got it, so committing is local and push is syncing to github.

@User THANK YOU

No problem. Glad my explanation worked 😄

Annnnnnd I'm back @User - I confirmed that it worked on 1 machine. Now I am trying to pull my changes from last night into my current dendron workspace on my work machine. Do I need to create a branch or pull request or something to be able to pull from my repo? or perhaps add it as a "Remote,"? Feels like it is one of those things but I don't know which one.

are you using github?

@User Yes, github and vs code

Did you already add the remote vault as a git repo?

you need to clone your repository to your other machine.

@User @User - so, if I clone the repo won't it just be a file on my machine? I need it to be in my dendron workspace

my current dendron workspace is just a blank slate on my work machine

and @User no I have not done anything besides setting up the initial repo and pushing my initial notes from last night up to github
