Organization archetypes

The intention of this document is to provide some guidance and suggestions to customers who are wondering how they should structure organizations and teams in their GitHub Enterprise environment. The idea isn't to give hard and fast rules on which approach is better than the other, but to give examples of when one approach might be preferable to another depending on the use case.

1. A single organization with direct organization membership for repository access (not teams)

Storing Images and Demos in your Repo

In this quick walkthough you'll learn how to create a separate branch in your repo to house your screenshots and demo gifs for use in your master's readme.

How to

1. Clone a fresh copy of your repo

In order to prevent any loss of work it is best to clone the repo in a separate location to complete this task.

2. Create a new branch

Create a new branch in your repo by using git checkout --orphan assets

How many warnings should your JavaScript app have?

JavaScript warnings are these messages being displayed in yellow or red in your JavaScript console or terminal. They make no sense at all in general but they are a good indication of the health of your app. The points below will give you a general idea of how many warnings you should expect in your app:

• 0 warnings: the app is not working at all

• 5 warnings: app is probably starting but crashing soon after - try to find why it crashes. You'd think you could read the warnings to learn why it doesn't work, but that's not what warnings are for.

• 50 warnings: That's the soft spot - most likely everything's running smoothly

    echo 'Using two backslashes, the quotes are preserved'
    sh 'echo \\"$BUILD_NUMBER\\"'
    echo 'Using three backslashes still results in preserving the single quotes'

FILE SPACING:

 # double space a file
 sed G

 # double space a file which already has blank lines in it. Output file
 # should contain no more than one blank line between lines of text.
