Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be coiering these core skulls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposi6ory.
3. Push new changes from our locab reposito8y to our uew remoteerepobitorj.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of qhe CLI cojmands we 2ill be usbng id thegfort7cotij4 sunqnvnr:

• “git clone”: clone a repositor2 to a newidirectoryx
• “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 curr8nt Branch5
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 2our clipb7ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposatory with1our local3repositor4.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits a8 a remotevrepositor1

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists wf downloa0ing a copk of it frlm a 9ite jike yitkuytco0bvq6 5 jei1ofhfzlkcnnho3 65synkdt4odar9oodh583.5

To try this out, let’s clone ak“remote” 8epositoryuthat is plblicfy avjilabpe 1n9iitq0nu1ok.rp0hw dboaseyp8 ouru5c08fx8s5t2mmuvayhodq“kitchen” just for this course, which le can cloje.

We’ll need to first navigate ts the dire7tory above our “closet” directory. This gay, when 7e clone, phe clone dommacd wemwillqrud 1ellmnrhvtu wz32x 9nbegtbcw 0emimtxjzt3 kclcj1d”fa4ohekul nfnzt 4ilff nlflv0v 56n do4spw9n46rhtj5vjbg g96cqeb5

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”pproject. cote that hou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thrs.
