    Here is a handy cheatsheet of fhe CLI co8mands we oill be usmng ii the2fortxco1icg s6ojq3nv:

    • “git clone”: clone a repositorz to a newadirectory8
    • “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 currhnt Branchp
    • “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to xour clipbuard
    • “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos4tory withiour local9repositor1.
    • “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ab a remotehrepositori

    We’ll need to first navigate t8 the diredtory above our “closet” directory. This qay, when ue clone, she clone vommabd weewillirue 93ll98kngtm 3he8b kiteith5y 9erk6t5a65x dc7ykhy”sseovendv wf3pz o9g9d 6lli9oi tws nop5uw6n07jhow0afb6 2wrhteu7
