As a part of Agile Software Development, git is a highly popular, free and open source version control system. While developing software with team, it is possible for developers to work on same code pieces simultaneously; which means that while building new features, using same code blocks may generate conflicts that prevents features to run. To eradicate this problem, developers create different branches for different features and they find an environment to review the each other's code. Then, the new features merge into the main branch and if there is a conflict between codes, the system warns about the conflicts. Furthermore, git enables to log changes and create versions with tags, which means that developers revert back to old versions and commits via git.

• Set a name that is identifiable for credit when review version history

git config --global user.name “[firstname lastname]”

• Set an email address that will be associated with each history marker

git config --global user.email “[valid-email]”

• Initialize an existing directory as a Git repository

git init

• Retrieve an entire repository from a hosted location via URL

git clone <URL>

• Show modified files in working directory, staged for your next commit

git status

• Add a file as it looks now to your next commit (If you want to add all changes you may use . instead [file])

git add <filename>

• Commit your staged content as a new commit snapshot

git commit -m "<Message>"

• Transmit local branch commits to the remote repository branch

git push <alias> <branch>

Wikibase Integrator is a tool for reading and writing to Wikibase with the APIs.

python -m pip install --pre wikibaseintegrator

from wikibaseintegrator import wibi_login


login_instance = wbi_login.Login(user='<bot user name>', pwd='<bot password>')

from wikibaseintegrator import wibi_core

cat_sparql_query = '
SELECT ?item ?itemLabel 
WHERE 
{
  ?item wdt:P31 wd:Q146. 
  SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "[AUTO_LANGUAGE],en". }
}'

wbi_core.ItemEngine.execute_sparql_query(cat_sparql_query)
