Overview

Git command-line tool environment required for staging, committing, and pushing changes to the repository, used by both the automated script and manual contribution workflow.

Description

This environment provides the Git CLI (git) needed for version control operations. The automated script (fetch_semantic_info.py) invokes git add, git commit, and git push via Python's subprocess.run(). The manual contribution workflow requires git clone to set up a local working copy and standard git operations to commit and push changes before opening a pull request.

The script assumes:

Git is available on the system PATH.
The working directory is an initialized git repository.
A remote named origin is configured.
The target branch is master.
Git credentials (SSH key or token) are available for push access.

Usage

Use this environment for any workflow that involves committing or pushing changes to the repository, including:

The Automated Paper Addition workflow (via git_commit_and_push())
The Manual Paper Contribution workflow (via git clone, git add, git commit, git push)

System Requirements

Category	Requirement	Notes
OS	Any (Linux, macOS, Windows)	Git is cross-platform
Hardware	Standard CPU	No special hardware needed
Software	Git CLI	Any modern version (2.x+)

Dependencies

System Packages

git >= 2.0 (must be on system PATH)

Authentication

One of the following is required for push access:

SSH key configured for the GitHub remote
HTTPS credentials (personal access token or credential helper)

Credentials

The following must be configured for the automated push workflow:

Git push credentials: Either an SSH key pair (~/.ssh/id_rsa or equivalent) or an HTTPS personal access token configured via a credential helper. The script calls git push origin master which requires write access to the remote repository.

Quick Install

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install git

# macOS (via Homebrew)
brew install git

# Windows (download from https://git-scm.com/download/win)

Code Evidence

Git operations from fetch_semantic_info.py:193-203:

def git_commit_and_push(commit_message):
    try:
        # Stage all changes
        subprocess.run(["git", "add", "."], check=True)
        # Commit with the given commit message
        subprocess.run(["git", "commit", "-m", commit_message], check=True)
        # Push the commit to the master branch on origin
        subprocess.run(["git", "push", "origin", "master"], check=True)
        print("Commit and push successful!")
    except subprocess.CalledProcessError as e:
        print("An error occurred during git operations:", e)

Manual clone step from README.md:L18-24:

First, you can fork my repo. Then, add the paper you think relevant.
After that, open a pull request.

Common Errors

Error Message	Cause	Solution
`FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'git'`	Git not installed or not on PATH	Install git and ensure it is on the system PATH
`CalledProcessError: Command '['git', 'commit', '-m', ...]' returned non-zero exit status 1`	No changes to commit (working tree clean)	This is expected when no new papers were added; the script catches this error gracefully
`CalledProcessError: Command '['git', 'push', ...]' returned non-zero exit status 128`	Authentication failure or remote not configured	Configure git credentials (SSH key or HTTPS token) and verify the `origin` remote exists

Compatibility Notes

Branch name: The script hardcodes git push origin master. Repositories using main as the default branch would need to modify the script.
Staging all files: The script uses git add . which stages all changes in the working directory, not just README.md. This could unintentionally stage other modified files.
