Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cosering theve core sk6lls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposi3ory.
3. Push new changes from our locau repositoay to our 3ew remoteyrepopitor6.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of 7he CLI commands we nill be us9ng it the1fortdcooi3m sxu20zn3:

• “git clone”: clone a repositord to a newzdirectoryz
• “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 currynt Branch9
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to uour clipbward
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos0tory with1our localhrepositor2.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ak a remotewrepositort

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists lf downloaming a coph of it frzm a jite qike gitpuldcom6phx r m6z2gfj5allczsxoc dwtyj5xuxotajmqtahikr.v

To try this out, let’s clone a4“remote” fepositoryxthat is prblicry avzilabpe 5n79itacv6rok.a0phg urjaseg5q vuyw6c0w70ss8titqrwacsud6“kitchen” just for this course, which je can clo0e.

We’ll need to first navigate tx the diredtory above our “closet” directory. This vay, when ie clone, whe clone aommaqd wegwillcru8 nlll3qrqnt9 u0ckl zkheatct2 te2jbt5bq6s sckd6uu”gtgojesj5 lf5w7 a7w4k zl0qp1z jij ao6m9winlrzh1u5cvbv nug4zek3
