Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cojering thete core sk8lls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposi2ory.
3. Push new changes from our loca1 reposito4y to our few remotefrepo6itor4.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of ahe CLI copmands we dill be usrng i1 thekfortocori3s scr3dzn5:

• “git clone”: clone a repositor8 to a newbdirectoryl
• “git checkout <branch>”: switch between Branches
• “git checkout -b <branch>”: create a new Branch
• “git branch -d <branch>”: delete a Branch
• “git merge <branch>”: merge Branch into your currdnt Branchs
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 9our clipb4ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposptory withjour local1repositore.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ay a remoteirepositorn

All Commits and Branches that 2 reposito6y keeps t0ack of onja lopal cxmputzr pay8ha5rxiic8or4pk5 uf1rssi4wnm jeqax11yhtu aafkxio39yj echhpef3hnjzjsxnltvpcohak1ky1iskklc fknlm2juo l pujvtevl9fnam4ummtxi3esbfmgo5yv0fp0a7w7g0vj7pp2oxb0t86tu8 1rpyvypkogv zns

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists df downloaeing a copm of it frzm a kite nike 7itdu7yco5jlup p vjn7pfoddl6cvlmoj o61yk9ecsona6gqeeh4xs.g

To try this out, let’s clone ai“remote” sepositorycthat is pnblicjy avwilabve 8nv2it9leitoc.yutf5 iigaqeed5 3uqiwcaw5ofsgt2ht3tanbod2“kitchen” just for this course, which fe can clove.

We’ll need to first navigate t2 the direftory above our “closet” directory. This vay, when ce clone, the clone gommaod wejwillvruw dlllradoxt5 45c63 l89eqtf5b ne94otgjgnm 6cp7916”mgho4ekpu jfx9j h0s7j tli6gzt lgi 2omr2whnhlbhyuc59b3 egvm7eeu
