I have fumbled (and stumbled) trying to create a revised-possibly-to-be-proposed for Boost library in the new modular boost format. So far I have created a folder /modular-boost/svg_plot And copied all the files into it in the new modular format and got the library working OK (compiling, tests, examples, docs etc). Then I created my repository by doing I:\modular-boost\libs>git init svg_plot Initialized empty Git repository in I:/modular-boost/libs/svg_plot/.git/ Then I GIT Added various files, and committed these to my repository. (Should I have pushed?) I tried to tell git to ignore some files like log files, etc (but I don't get a .gitignore file when I think I should - the Tortoise GIT window has various options like .gitignore in the repos root, but no 'OK' button, just a close??? I have a .gitignore at /modular-boot/ but it does not contain the files to ignore (and I would not expect it to). I've set the GITHub default storage directory to \modular-boost\libs but a scan for repos only find modular-boost I went to my GITHUB page and followed the invitation to drag the svg_plot repository onto the page. Some files are listed (but ones I want to ignore) and then all options are unresponsive or greyed out and eventually GITHUB hangs and then crashes :-( So both GIT and I are confused ! Can anyone suggest what sequence of actions I should take to set this up? Thanks Paul Paul A. Bristow Prizet Farmhouse Kendal UK LA8 8AB +44 01539 561830 07714330204
