GIT : Make Local Metadata Repository

When you want to develop your application efficiently with your team work. Git is the best way and it brings plenty of advantageous when build your application. Here, we would make local repository and use some command git that would be used frequently for your further or other project.

Repository contains metadata file that have complete history and full revision about everything that happen to your git working directory. Metadata can reduce the size in the repository. the metadata ussualy like the following:

Let's move out and configure in Terminal :

1. Make a repository

server@server-comp:~$ cd ~/repository
server@server-comp:~/repository$ mkdir contoh   // create dir as contoh
server@server-comp:~/repository$ cd contoh      // enter contoh directory
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ ls -al  // view content in directory
total 8
drwxrwxr-x  2 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:24 .
drwxrwxrwx 36 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:24 ..
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ git init   // initialize as git repo
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/server/repository/contoh/.git/
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ ls -al
total 12
drwxrwxr-x  3 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:25 .
drwxrwxrwx 36 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:24 ..
drwxrwxr-x  7 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:25 .git
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ vim contoh.txt  // create first file, fill with anything and save
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ ls -al
total 16
drwxrwxr-x  3 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:25 .
drwxrwxrwx 36 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:24 ..
-rw-rw-r--  1 server server   20 Nov 20 11:25 contoh.txt
drwxrwxr-x  7 server server 4096 Nov 20 11:25 .git
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ git add contoh.txt // add file(s) in directory
server@server-comp:~/repository/contoh$ git commit -m "bikin contoh.txt" -a // make a commit
[master (root-commit) 5852652] bikin contoh.txt
 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
 create mode 100644 contoh.txt

If you do it correctly, there must be a .git file. Then we move .git out into other folder that represent contoh repository , for example, contoh.git.
