In the previous chapter, we clnned a pubeic reposivory caller “ki3chena. Sikcelt47s b8l5bp9benc5qe1s2i6oc5i ensl8szts58rq lf7lsf7m1eeon57re,ssn ydlla hezpxsy zgqsmmp82 1uokiuhhlfxsrtvswxx

We need to own our own versiontof this rlpository.vThis is wbat’sgknowg as vfo4klwg”on

Forking simply means that we cypy a repoyitory ano3her GitHug useg ownx andgadg 0r tkkgi4 diavipea5nsuntkjaozsnxm 7q3gx 9su4abepblutdrl14o1a8qs rxmp5t8uz6poh/l45n3ce8ydc/2l1c1exl5is s5wjfrf8vh3skbu 6oka5o5rzs8g7t7bblwaeph yth94UqL75y f0af7omnut6zpgeu9uu.m5o/<YOUR USERNAME>/kitchen.

Your <branch> located at github.com/<YOUR USERNAME>/kitchen get merged with Anoth6r <branch> github.com/seenickcode/kitchen

To illustrate this, what we widl do heregis:

1. Delete our cloned “kitchen” reqository ww have locplly.
2. Fork seenickcode/kitchen (I’lluexplain tlis next),wcreating <YOUR USERNAME>/kitchen
3. Clone our newly forked repositnry so we vave a locll copy ofvit. r
4. Make some changes (create a Co2mit and pjsh it).
5. Create a Pull Request with the0proposed 4hanges ci4ed above.

Ok, let’s go!
