Well: as an almost complete newcomer to Github, I would be grateful if you
could outline a way to edit
the documents at
https://github.com/runrev/livecode-ide/tree/develop/Documentation/guides
<https://github.com/runrev/livecode-ide/tree/develop/Documentation/guides> and
submit them after
the editing . . . does this involve setting up my own github branch????
Yes. You will need a Github account and then fork the Github repository. You
can then edit the documents on-line. Once you have finished editing the
documents, you will need to create a Pull Request. The LiveCode team will then
decide whether to accept or decline your changes.
One thing that is needed for your changes to be accepted is to for you to enter into
a contributor’s agreement http://livecode.com/account/developer/contribute
<http://livecode.com/account/developer/contribute>
You can make better use of Git by downloading the repository onto your own machine. I
was able to do that quite easily by following this
https://help.github.com/categories/bootcamp/
<https://help.github.com/categories/bootcamp/>
I have no doubt that you will breeze though the process.
I very much doubt it: I downloaded GIT,
told GIT my name ('richmond'),
told GIT my email ('richmondmathew...@gmail.com'),
and then got stuck:
https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git/#next-steps-authenticating-with-github-from-git
so; where is GIT"
