We just got hired by a very famous movie star (whose name may not be disclosed)
55
to create a new version of our app for their specific use case. Our lead
66
engineers were working on putting together the new app, but they mysteriously
7-
dissappeared while on a golfing trip a few weeks past. We were told that the
8-
code was about ready to deploy, just hadn't gotten the chance to merge it into
9-
the main branch. See if you can figure out how to get it up and running.

code was just about ready to deploy, they just hadn't gotten the chance to merge

it into the `main` branch. So, now it falls to you to figure out how to get the
10+
app deployed.

The name of the app is "carrot-cruncher". The last dev got the repo set up
12-
somewhere on disk, but they never said where... hopefully you'll able to find
13-
it. When you do, supposedly there was a new working branch pushed to the remote
14-
repo, so you'll need to figure out how to authenticate to that repo.

There was a note in your team's documentation about a process that picks up keys
17-
in the local git server. Supposedly all you had to do was copy some file to the
18-
'ssh-keys/' directory near all the repos and git takes it from there? So I guess
19-
try that? Then clone the remote branches down, then you'll be off to the
20-
races... Good luck!

kind of key file to a directory called "ssh-keys" and the Git server takes it

16+
that.

Challenge 7: Git branch management
22
==================================

Great, now that you've got your SSH keys set up, you'll need to figure out which
5-
of those remote branches have the correct changes it get it merged in ASAP. Once
6-
you clone the repo, the working branch should be obvious... or so we were
7-
told... So we recommend you just try looking at/running the code the the
8-
different branches and see which one fits.

Great, now that you've got your SSH key set up, you'll need to do a few things
5+
to get the code actually running:
6+
7+
* The name of the app is "carrot-cruncher". The last dev got the repo set up
8+
somewhere on disk under `/opt`, so you'll need to find it first.
9+
10+
* Next, you'll need to figure out which of those remote branches have the
11+
correct changes on it. Once you have the repo up to date, the working branch
12+
should be obvious... or so we were told. So we recommend you just try looking
13+
at and/or running the code the the different branches and see which one works.
14+
15+
* Once you find the working branch, merge it into the `main` branch and push it
16+
to the remote.
