appendix C companion and outline

This page contains companion resources and an outline for appendix C of the book An Introduction to Real-Time Computing for Mechanical Engineers, and it therefore lacks most of appendix C’s contents. While some sections of the book are fully available on this site, many are not. Please consider purchasing a copy from the MIT Press.

Git version control

The command-line program Git is indispensable for software development.1 It is a version control system that helps keep things straight as your software develops, maintains a rigorous history of the development, and provides an excellent framework for collaboration. A Git project is a directory with a special .git subdirectory that keeps track of all this. In this appendix, we will set up a Git repository for your workspace directory from section 0.2.
