Submission

For this lab and all labs in this course, at the end of your scheduled lab session, you should "submit" your work (regardless of how much your completed) using git push.

You should always include in your repo all files that you created in the lab, other than those (such as the output of the compiler) generated automatically from other files. Think of this as including just the files necessary to backup and to be able to recreate your work. Do not simply add all files to your repo; for example, do not simply type something like git add . or git add *, and never add any object files, executable files, or core files to your repo. Only add the actual source files (for example, .c and .h files) that should be in your repo.
