Comment #17 on issue 2217 by asmeurer: Patches tutorial
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2217
I went through it with Mac OS X's builtin spelling/grammar checker. I only
found one or two spelling mistakes. There were a few grammar mistakes, and
I did not look deeper than what the very limited grammar checker found
(that would require me to read through the entire document, something I
don't have time to do right now).
I also noticed some things about the document.
First, we should include the example .gitconfig from
http://docs.sympy.org/dev/sympy-patches-tutorial.html#quick-start.
Second, the method of putting your branch in your PS1 is not the best
(though easy). The better way is to clone the git sources, and in there
there will be a contrib directory with a gitcompletion file (or something
like that). There are instructions on how to use this file to add a
branch name to your PS1 in this file. You just have to copy it to your ~/
directory and add it to your .profile. This also has the advantage of
adding tab completion to just about every git command. This also does
other fancy stuff like tell you when you are in the middle of a rebase.
Third, I just realized that we should have a link to the wiki at the top of
our docs, since we have so much stuff on it these days. Just something
like "There is also a lot of useful information on our wiki." This is
unrelated to this issue, but maybe we could fix it when we remove the
patches tutorial from the docs.
