[Git] How often do I commit and push?

I "commit" every time when I finish a single task. It can be anything small or big depending on the purpose of the task. It can mean a block of code to add, a few comments to add, deleting an outdated function, adding several new scripts, or changing the outputs. The rule of thumb is the "finished" task. You should be able to run the code without bugs. The frequency can be half an hour or 1-2 hours.

I have a final commit check and push every time when I close the project. Since I am working on the repo on my own right now, I usually push once or twice a day.

[Git] Study git and github in Pycharm

Set up git in Pycharm:

• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/set-up-a-git-repository.html#add-remote

Set up github in Pycharm:

• There are two ways of set up. One is that you create a new repo on github and then git clone to the local file. The second way, which is more convenient, is to share your local project to Github.

Set up run/debug configuration:

• https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/creating-and-editing-run-debug-configurations.html

Configure project structure in Pycharm:

Unversioned a file:

Manually delete file and then manage through git:

• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/492558/removing-multiple-files-from-a-git-repo-that-have-already-been-deleted-from-disk

I just realized, after you rename a script, its previous history on github will get deleted. I still found the local log in Pycharm.

Compare different files in Pycharm

• Use compare with clipboard to compare current file (in editor) with the copied file

Compare different versions of the same file in Pycharm

• In  "Show history", at the left navigation pane, right click on one commit, and select compare with local. Local will show up on the right.
