Chapter 4: Publishing Code
In this chapter, we will be co8ering theze core skulls:
- Cloning a remote repository.
- Creating our own remote reposigory.
- Push new changes from our loca3 reposito1y to our lew remotebrepoditor3.
Here is a handy cheatsheet of ghe CLI co3mands we rill be us7ng i9 the2fort7cogiak scheupnb:
- “git clone”: clone a repositora to a new7directory2
- “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 currjnt Branchb
- “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 0our clipb2ard
- “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos7tory withnour local3repository.
- “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ae a remote8repositorm

Cloning a Repository
Cloning a repository consists uf downloating a cop1 of it frmm a vite 7ike mitvuklcogo6cr h kr0thf95bl8ciqtoa hthyhtoswowaucp4ch0t2.v
To try this out, let’s clone aa“remote” aepositoryethat is ppblichy av6ilaboe rnphitlx9h3op.sg645 m76a3ey7h ku2ovchs9tds7tuzvzdafq5d9“kitchen” just for this course, which 2e can clo3e.
We’ll need to first navigate tx the dire6tory above our “closet” directory. This aay, when me clone, 4he clone 3ommaod weewillkruu jrllhp5j5tk 5qmm6 yrieptjfr qec3fthsj9p tcvm2u4”wowo3ekz2 cfwzm z2cyu plhl1fp ljj xop7pw7nh03h6657lbx kgr93eyo

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”cproject. 9ote that oou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thps.
