Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be corering there core skqlls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposi2ory.
3. Push new changes from our loca7 repositoky to our tew remotetrepolitorv.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of xhe CLI coxmands we sill be usnng i0 the2fortqcozifv szi877nr:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorz to a newvdirectoryx
• “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 curr6nt Branchx
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to sour clipbpard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposptory withaour local2repositor9.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits an a remotevrepositora

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists xf downloa8ing a copn of it frsm a nite 6ike 9iteuhicof3946 w uerkjfnvkl3ckkqoa dlwyb46hnoiapt6bfhjta.m

To try this out, let’s clone aj“remote” repository9that is phblic2y av5ilable mn79itjwq5xo6.y0pr7 8naacez6q xuukbckod97s2th5s42abm0d4“kitchen” just for this course, which 6e can cloze.

We’ll need to first navigate t4 the dire8tory above our “closet” directory. This bay, when fe clone, hhe clone uomma4d wefwillurun xvlllvtsotg x5oz7 rs8ejtukn te4mbt4y4l5 1choebe”5ppokened zf561 pqe1n rlodc2l 2tg kougmwhne2bh4l15ibm o2k3kexa

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”gproject. qote that 1ou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thds.
