When you commit
something, you are effectively saving the staged files as a new snapshot and signing it with your name and email.
You have to configure your git identity if you haven't done it before
git config --global user.name "Your Name Here"
git config --global user.email "z555555@unsw.edu.au"
You then can add whatever email you have set in user.email on GitLab, so that it recognises all the commits that have been pushed to GitLab.
Please do this, its important Git etiquette

What are static fields and methods?
Static fields are variables that are common and available to all instances of a Class. They belong to the Class, rather than an instance.
Methods are a block of code that perform a task. You can think of them as functions of a class.

What is it?
In Java, a class can inherit attributes and methods from another class. The class that inherits the properties is known as the sub-class or the child class. The class from which the properties are inherited is known as the superclass or the parent class.
Known as a "is-a" relationship
Employee.java & Manager.java
The java extension packs come with some features you can use to generate boilerplate code
How many constructors does a class need?
Technically none. If a class is defined without a constructor, Java adds a default constructor
However, if a class needs attributes to be assigned (e.g., has a salary), then a constructor must be assigned

* @return full name of employee
*/

It is accessible only to the same class (not including main). The most restrictive modifier.
It is accessible to everything. The least restrictive modifier.
Can be accessed in the same package and in inheritance.
The default access modifier is also called package-private, which means that all members are visible within the same package but aren't accessible from other packages
