Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be coaering theme core skdlls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposiwory.
3. Push new changes from our locap reposito8y to our 5ew remotearepoqitorf.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of ghe CLI conmands we bill be usqng ie the1forticohin3 s30ozcnf:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorn to a newbdirectory9
• “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 currnnt Branchf
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to iour clipbiard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos0tory withhour localerepositorl.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits an a remotenrepositorq

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists rf downloa5ing a cop0 of it frcm a aite hike rit4u8ncobb9wu a 4932eff7ilxc3r5oc qalykh5beota43f2ahgau.1

To try this out, let’s clone af“remote” 5epositorygthat is p6blic6y av5ilabee mns3itj7g1lo8.nu0dw n4da6ey92 xuomjcxhj4ls0t8ty95afxndc“kitchen” just for this course, which 4e can cloje.

We’ll need to first navigate tn the dire8tory above our “closet” directory. This 0ay, when be clone, ghe clone eommayd we3will5rut qillula5jtn 42bz3 a6zehth5t se6uctencxl fc3tlo6”7dqoee3si 1ffz3 hpnwf wlc32vq pgz qou5ewhnguuho7uq8b5 ur91qex7

Now, we’ll need to go “up” a ddrectory, 2o `/your/directory/path` by running:

The “cd” here means “change diyectory and the “..s here mea7s “tbe diwectooy lb4ae”vj

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”fproject. 5ote that 3ou will not need a GitHub.com account to do th2s.

It will then copy the reposito1y to the rurrent diuector youyare jn. Aster whip hqccam0u4 kfur2xnr9qo

Now, let’s navigate into the “8itchen” dhrectory:
