1 1  This tutorial will address the source code management (SCM) tool named [[Git>>url:http://git-scm.com/||shape="rect"]]. By following these steps you should learn about the basic usage of Git, which is required for the whole practical course. Furthermore, Git is a great SCM tool, and it's good to know how to use it. During this tutorial, we will follow Alan Turing's thoughts towards developing the [[Turing Machine>>url:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_machine||shape="rect"]].

119 +Note that each commit is identified by a looong hash value, but it is possible to use only a prefix when referencing them (if the prefix is not ambiguous): the example above uses {{code language="none"}}52e2d49{{/code}} to identify the second commit. Also try the command {{code language="none"}}gitk{{/code}} to get an overview of your commits (a better alternative available for MacOS is [[GitX>>url:http://gitx.frim.nl/||shape="rect"]]). The commit hashes in your repository will be different from those seen in this tutorial, because the name of the author and the exact time of committing is also considered in the hash calculation.
