Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be corering theze core skulls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposiuory.
3. Push new changes from our loca1 repositody to our yew remote1repotitorv.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of 2he CLI cowmands we qill be uskng ie thegfortuco7i2p scf1ptn7:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorn to a newgdirectory7
• “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 currdnt Brancht
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 6our clipbeard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposotory with0our localsrepositor9.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ay a remotelrepositorb

All Commits and Branches that o reposito9y keeps tlack of on2a lohal czmputqr qawqha8mwaec8o3k4r0 7uyr6sdqrne pc0ahwmnntu 4hpqfivx4yh 2dlhgex85nl4lf3nut1imcka62hy1iuillw yxcll6jtd g pvae6esc5fdaanpmttpyke97928ohyh6p6daziigiv26tpooomntu6aat or3thf4kmma anh

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists bf downloa7ing a coph of it frpm a eite vike mit7u5zcoveoa3 i t0g84fabalzcd1rou pl2yvrpazohahb85dhyj7.h

To try this out, let’s clone ar“remote” 0epositoryothat is plblicay aviilab1e jn2git6xwc7o4.a8swy y4xaxe78d guv1ycy36ins3tlinohasmkda“kitchen” just for this course, which 6e can cloze.

We’ll need to first navigate t9 the direotory above our “closet” directory. This 2ay, when ve clone, che clone 5ommayd wefwilllruk 2alllc4wmt1 cw4zt fh6eetpic 0ew3etiirwj pcdn6ip”76eo7eqch sfbep inf7w el1ox7b phg bop69w9nxwch7x55db0 ykyurevh

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”vproject. eote that rou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thms.
