Finally done with the setup

I was finishing getting my rasp pi, and by using the walkthrough here: http://www.git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Setting-Up-the-Server, I was able to get the server set up how I needed. I did run into a little difficulty, because I am using a Windows, rather than linux as my client. Since I don't currently understand Git as well as tfs or svn, I decided to learn a little more, before looking into getting a third party GUI, so to start I had to learn Git GUI which was included with the Git install. after running the program, I used it to create a New Repository in the folders that I wanted to add, commit the files, and then push the local repository to the bare one that I had set up on the raspberry pi. I chose accidentally chose to have Git use open ssh rather than putty, which is what I normally use, and I was unable to import the existing rsa key from putty to the Git GUI, so I had to generate a new one.

After getting that set up, I decided to look into integration with Eclipse, as that is the IDE I use when developing in Java. I found Egit pretty quickly, and was able to get it set up with very minimal problems. At that point I was able to get back to writting my code. The first thing I started doing was writing methods to act as linq equivilents. I'll talk about that more next time.
