Using git and getting updates to the course repo on your machine ...

[mmcky]

To get the course files you may use the GitHub page and download the raw files to your computer when they get updated.

Not Required - this is for students interested in Git which is not a requirement for this course.

Another way is to use git which is a version control application to retrieve the files. This also has the added benefit of being able to retrieve updates to the course repository easily. Git is installed on Linux (usually by default) and OS X. But it is not installed by default on Windows and would require installation.

git clone https://github.com/mmcky/nyu-econ-370.git

will fetch a copy of the entire repo and save it to your computer in the folder: nyu-econ-370/

To get updates

git pull origin master

will pull the latest changes into your repo.

Note: If you make changes to files within the repo - you may experience merge conflicts if I update older files.
