Don't look like a noob when you see any git project, but learn its POWER! Git is one of the greatest tools ever invented...

It would be really nice if you could do a follow up video on how to resolve weird issues with git such as the "detached head" and other common problems some of us users randomly run into.

[@mydroid2791]

Its great there are ways to get the proper files from Github, but it makes no sense why they have all those ways to get files but don't have "Save As" work properly.

[@Lodinn]

@@TheExileFox One does not exactly run into git issues randomly, but I get where you're coming from. You happily complete a feature and push forgetting to squash commits first and spend another half an hour rebasing it the hard way and making sure you don't break anything rewriting the remote history. Come to think of it, probably outdated forks are the worst to deal with - I once forgot to set upstream on my fork and made a bunch of changes to data files while lagging 100+ commits behind the original repo. Not fun. Atlassian probably has the best tutorial out there, official docs aren't bad either - I usually direct new members of the team there.

[@botcontador3286]

Yeah, metaphorically speaking Linus moved to another country expecting that his costumes and language would be the same and got frustrated when realizing he was out of his cozy familiar comfort zone. As like everyone he eventually will go through the 5 stages of grief. BTW, I love git so much I named my cat Git. Yes there is a cat in brazil called git and he really loves pushing things.

Yup. And it's funny how he hates how github and distros manage both of those creations. I completely agree with him on this one. The distros can't agree on packaging for applications and github does a shit job of managing pulls and merges.

I think my favourite part of the LTT linux challenge is finding your page. I'm slowly getting back into Linux to digitize old VHS tapes and it's going well. I'm really looking forward to your debian-titus. I also coincidentally started using git about two days ago. All of these videos are so timely for me. Thanks for all your hard work!

[@utubepunk]

I also need to digitize a box or 5 of vhs tapes. What are you using to do it?

[@steveP526]

@@utubepunk I'm using an old Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-150 card and VLC. I'd bet any supported TV tuner card should do and then wire the VCR CATV output to the tuner. You may be able to use composite out or S-video depending on the VCR capabilities. Mine was CATV out only. There's a switch on the back of the VCR usually for CH 3 or 4, so make sure that's correct and tune to that. One thing that helped me find that channel was 'scantv -i "Tuner 1" -n NTSC-M -f us-cable -c /dev/video32', so something similar should work as a quick check that the tuner can see the carrier from the VCR. In my case 61.25MHz said '???' instead of 'no station', which all the others said. Then in VLC I used File->convert and make sure you use that frequency in kHz (so 61.25MHz becomes 61250kHz). I also had to specify the audio channel from the capture card as 'pulse://'. For the profile I used MPEG-TS encapsulation, MPEG-1 Codec @ 360x240px 1600kb/s bitrate and 29.97fps. Audio codec was MP3 @ 128kb/s bitrate, 2 channel, 44100Hz sample rate. Another issue was stuttering in the digital version and changing the caching to 2000ms from 300ms (under 'show more options') seemed to fix that. I'm sure there are plenty of better ways, but this worked for me. There was a lot of trial and error on the way though. Getting scantv to show something useful was the first success though. Although if you're using composite or S-video that's not necessary since there's no tuner involved.

[@utubepunk]

@@steveP526 oh wow! Thanks for all the details. Gonna screenshot your reply for my notes. I remember way back when TV cards were a thing. Right after is when media centered PCs took off.

​@@utubepunk I think I might have made a KZbin comment no-no since my last reply didn't go through. Posting links maybe gets you flagged as spam or something. Anyway, keeping with the theme of Chris' original video - I created a new github repo. The user is bigsdawg-2k and the repo is VHS_capture_with_tuner_card. There's one PDF in there that has all my notes in chronological order (starting with a card I eventually learned had a bad tuner). It has a bunch of hopefully useful stuff in there...

[@plica06]

You definitely must work with both power users and basic users. You clearly grasp that there are levels to this IT world. Your ability to verbalize know the technical aspects to various areas and translate in a way that many people can understand.

You da man Mr. Titus

[@alanelston2330]

I don’t disagree with your general sentiments: I have been, and remain, a staunch supporter of Chris and have been form the start. But I don’t rate well this particular video. When I first watched this video I was interested in finding out about GH, - I knew nothing about it. I could not understand most of this video back then. In the meantime I have used GH effectively, (in a limited way to glean a lot of useful info from past and present stuff, and have made some minor contributions.) Watching this a new a few times now, I still can’t make head nor tail of most of it. I think if you understand this video then you must already know all about GH. I think this video was a quick opportunist knee jerk reaction, but for the inexperienced GH user, it rather supports that LTT chaps confusion at trying to understand GH. For me GH remains over confusing, but you can glean good info from there, but a project goes around in circles and gets nowhere fast, partly because most people can’t underfstand the place, and that includes most people using it!, effectively or otherwise.

Great tutorial on this! I've been a little lost and I think this is a nice overview. I will admit, there have been times where I just wanted to download a single folder and didn't want to download the entire repo, so I've used downgit for that. I think it would be nice if there was a download button next to each file and folder by the commit id or something. I know it will be a while before that happens, but I don't it's an unreasonable improvement that could be made at least years down the line.

[@CrazyTech200]

Nice video, please make a part 2 for more in-depth information like how branches work. And 2 things I noticed: 1) sometimes you use git as a term for both git and GitHub which could cause confusion (but to be fair those points are quite minor) 2) when you highlight a part of the screen (like at 9:13) and blur the background your camera also blurs which I think doesn't look good

[@ChrisTitusTech]

Thanks for the feedback, yeah I'll change that title template to leave me in focus as well. I originally had branches in this video, but cut the part out as I didn't like my presentation and the fact it ran 10 minutes longer as I explained why we use branches for tests and rambled a bit too long for the purposes of this video.

So basically. If you're contributing: clone it, make changes, commit, push. If you want to see changes made/ contributing and collaborating at the same time: fetch every now and then to see changes take effect on your end. gotcha.

git advanced features can be mind benders for an already awesome tool. it can get *crazy*, crazy good once you get used to all of its details and inner workings, cause knowing how it ticks makes the thing unbreakable to some extent.
