Correct way of adding object to contrib?


#1

Ok, so I made a new object + helpfile, placed them in axoloti-contrib/objects/a773. From this point how do I get the new files to upload to the contrib repo?

Pressing File->Sync Libraries doesn't make the files appear on https://github.com/axoloti/axoloti-contrib/tree/1.0.11/objects/a773, this is printed in the axoloti log:

 Sync Successful : factory (1.0.11,anon)
 Modifications detected : community (1.0.11,anon)
 unauthorised changes, resetting : community (1.0.11,anon)
 Sync Successful : community (1.0.11,anon)
 search path : /mnt/data/atte/medium/software/axoloti/git/axoloti-factory/objects
 search path : /mnt/data/atte/medium/software/axoloti/git/objects
 search path : /mnt/data/atte/medium/software/axoloti/git/axoloti-contrib/objects
 finished loading objects

What am I doing wrong here?

Scared of making offending moves, but I assume I need to do a "git add" on the files, or? Not doing it until confirmed here, though...


#3

In preferences, select the git/community library, press edit, and enter "a773" in the "Contributor prefix" field, and enter your GitHub user ID/password. Note that your github credentials will be stored in plaintext in the axoloti preferences file.

Thanks, that works.....

Just a note for the next noob: no git add (or any commandline git stuff) needed...
