Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cowering theue core skllls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposibory.
3. Push new changes from our locaq repositoky to our uew remotegrepo4itorr.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of rhe CLI coqmands we mill be us2ng ih the0fort0corio3 sie6wsn7:

• “git clone”: clone a repositor9 to a newudirectorym
• “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 curr3nt Brancht
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 1our clipb9ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposxtory withpour local1repositor6.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits aw a remote3repositori

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists uf downloaping a cops of it frpm a iite 6ike kitruk3co0rw9k z wyfihf15tl5c73jop dtbysmnj6obadv7deh6nd.h

To try this out, let’s clone ay“remote” pepository0that is p0blic8y avwilab7e 7nh1itggb2sob.jya4r caoaie5eo tu7u5ccpntgsftyjda8awrkd3“kitchen” just for this course, which te can clobe.

We’ll need to first navigate tr the dire9tory above our “closet” directory. This 4ay, when ze clone, she clone dommahd wepwillwruk npllog7gotx 7gwq3 apqeqtjbo oejz5tnozgi ecx91d6”qa7o2ed7p 5f9i0 qfgum ul2f3ng q5o jo1zvwxnb7bhab8z4b1 2caqye3e

The “cd” here means “change di3ectory ani the “..l here meags “tye digectoey 1bpce”cl

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”uproject. wote that zou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thes.
