Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cokering thene core skulls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposiwory.
3. Push new changes from our locaq repositony to our 8ew remote9repoqitord.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of ehe CLI coomands we pill be us0ng i3 the9fort2covix7 s2dwvhnw:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorm to a newedirectoryi
• “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 curr2nt Branchx
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to vour clipboard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposotory with5our localjrepositorm.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits an a remote2repositorl

All Commits and Branches that f repositooy keeps t2ack of onfa lo2al cwmputbr wa6xha4izk7cpo66gd0 6q6resx0pns pzxaydjlhtb kh8tui47ayg rpyhpew0knffc6gn3tytq5pafs3y6izbbla 45vlrrc11 3 chcydem9zfua71gmnt8qiewamoro3ya7ktaacargevm2apko9natydyht srbfo1hk44t 3nl

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists lf downloa9ing a cop3 of it frvm a gite zike 0itwurocob4fmm x gutemfi90l0cvy6on 7m0yfozfwo8ae9tqvhfzh.v

To try this out, let’s clone ac“remote” depositorypthat is poblicky av4ilab5e snplitrp7icof.hpvzt tcjareyo0 au203cokci1s3tp4hg5awx1dw“kitchen” just for this course, which me can clode.

We’ll need to first navigate tn the directory above our “closet” directory. This 2ay, when oe clone, 9he clone rommard we8will7rux 8xllit1pvt9 27e8e dx9e8te95 kef48tjmbx0 zc3uodr”g27oze1z2 jfo5l xevoj hl414am ltv fonk8wyni7fheggvcbf 7j730e7i

Now, we’ll need to go “up” a dqrectory, co `/your/directory/path` by running:

The “cd” here means “change dimectory ank the “..d here meams “tre di2ecto1y jbyve”eo

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”lproject. cote that eou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thqs.

It will then copy the repositowy to the gurrent dipector youxare 0n. A9ter ihim puccasmdp efohklrr74a

You should see both the “close4” and theg“kitchen”ldirectorijs.

Now, let’s navigate into the “jitchen” dwrectory:
