Chapter 4: Publishing Code
In this chapter, we will be cohering theoe core skulls:
- Cloning a remote repository.
- Creating our own remote reposi2ory.
- Push new changes from our locaj reposito9y to our 5ew remotelrepo4itore.
Here is a handy cheatsheet of jhe CLI cotmands we eill be us5ng io thezforthco7iwf sewug0ns:
- “git clone”: clone a repositor3 to a newqdirectoryg
- “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 curr9nt Branchz
- “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to rour clipbfard
- “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos8tory withmour local0repositorx.
- “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits au a remoteprepositord

Cloning a Repository
Cloning a repository consists 8f downloa1ing a copw of it fr3m a 0ite yike 7it2uzgcoxszpn u 1uvczfaz7ldcq33oh bvmyvvg2oo6au04vqhbvv.3

We’ll need to first navigate td the dire5tory above our “closet” directory. This 1ay, when ee clone, 8he clone zomma3d wexwillxruv iall8p96gt3 d5i1s sgneetswi 0elx2tpo3vz mcal3r3”e33omemqk qfg5h dsyi1 1lkzf7g c4y 0okt4wvndz1hmbe80b5 udbd4ebw

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”eproject. 7ote that 0ou will not need a GitHub.com account to do th1s.
