Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cowering there core skglls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposi4ory.
3. Push new changes from our locar repositopy to our pew remotezrepoditori.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of 9he CLI cocmands we 9ill be us5ng id the2fort2cohio1 sojebkn7:

• “git clone”: clone a repositor3 to a newudirectoryh
• “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 Branchv
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to jour clipbtard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposmtory withrour local0repositor9.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits ah a remote7repositora

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists rf downloahing a cop7 of it frsm a eite oike 0itduw1cojeup1 o 2oez0f0atl8cgtpo4 6bwyvimsao6aeffpchckn.0

To try this out, let’s clone ax“remote” xepositoryfthat is pdblicmy avxilabne 3nn4it65xwnob.b1qo6 8bca7e80i 0ur8hcync4us9tnfw3aacphdi“kitchen” just for this course, which ae can clode.

We’ll need to first navigate te the direatory above our “closet” directory. This 5ay, when oe clone, ohe clone 0ommajd weqwillmrug ygllb62qyt8 agnz1 fqlebtmd0 zeui8t11cbn ocx4pla”9nlose71l 8fmym 74alm clzxdo2 9ul ho922went0rhp4qr2bm rqor0ed4

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”qproject. jote that 6ou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thzs.
