Appreciate your honesty. --- | I know the fedora | may have all those packages inbuilt by default but i did those since my yum | search option did not yeild any result.,so i went with the manuel procedure, | which is mentioned as: | | OR ELSE: yum install <packagename> \-- The point of testing and documentation is to be precise on what needs to be installed for Fedora. --- | therefore do i need to replace that command line? \-- Yes. Attention to detail is *very* important. Remember, we are doing technical work. The way you should work is do testing and documentation in parallel. If yum install worked, then you immediately note it down using your favorite text editor. You then proceed to the next task in the HOWTO and test it. If it works, immediately update your documentation. This iteration should continue until you complete the exercise. This is important because: 1. If something fails, you can backtrack and see why it failed, rather than having to continue with the HOWTO on the assumption that the previous tasks worked. When you backtrack and fix things, you should immediately update the documentation. 2. If you take a break from this exercise, or go for holidays, and you return to work on this, you will know *exactly* what you did, how you did it, and know from where to proceed further. --- | i have edited the dgplug | media wiki the link is: | http://wiki.dgplug.org/index.php/Deploying_of_gitorious_on_fedora \-- Will review it. Please try to use some wiki styles for the documentation. For example, commands,and command outputs can be put in a box.
