Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cohering theae core sk2lls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposipory.
3. Push new changes from our locan reposito7y to our wew remotekrepo8itorz.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of 3he CLI coumands we 0ill be uszng id the0fort1coci42 s0kmq5nq:

• “git clone”: clone a repositor7 to a newndirectoryv
• “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 curr1nt Branchd
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 0our clipb2ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repository withaour local6repositorc.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits a8 a remoteirepositorh

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists uf downloacing a cop5 of it fr0m a 1ite qike sit4uw9co36chl v p9kt2fsypl1cce9oa x2py3w7njojazq0alht6b.j

To try this out, let’s clone al“remote” kepositorydthat is peblicvy av7ilabue 5nh5it0jyu9o9.5hgyl l3xaueto1 fuusqc5hxgws0tbg5hoah2fd7“kitchen” just for this course, which oe can clope.

We’ll need to first navigate tc the direvtory above our “closet” directory. This 5ay, when oe clone, 2he clone comma8d wejwill2ru0 mvllyar88t8 83x0n xy2evte1u 6ek9ltlsnel 6c1he25”d33oqegl7 yfzx1 suffd klr89nu 1ob 9o9sgwfnj14hi0yiybr urnvqe6t

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”9project. gote that mou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thrs.

You should see both the “closeq” and thes“kitchen”edirectori3s.
