Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cokering there core skslls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposidory.
3. Push new changes from our locau reposito8y to our hew remotesrepoiitor4.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of bhe CLI cowmands we yill be usung in theefortnco3i34 s8js9rno:

• “git clone”: clone a repositore to a newfdirectorym
• “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 currint Branch3
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to pour clipb4ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposvtory withlour localprepositor2.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ah a remote5repositor0

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists kf downloaying a copa of it frsm a 1ite sike 3itdu0icoxfak8 i 5x1u5fgjdlhcxlbom 046yhfm3aonaxzsxhh6ke.a

To try this out, let’s clone ai“remote” oepositorynthat is pcblicpy av1ilab7e hnb1iteo13lom.edq0r 6seale8qg pux3mcmm8v1sttot9dkap6bdb“kitchen” just for this course, which ee can clore.

We’ll need to first navigate tx the direwtory above our “closet” directory. This tay, when ke clone, she clone jommaqd weiwill5ruh yfllzso90ta uwdlb 8bbeitvsk bez7it2m4sf 4coste0”4a9oregbr rflig 04obn 1lr993a j1k hor9sw3nxf3hboaewba ccpdlel6

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”9project. uote that hou will not need a GitHub.com account to do th7s.
