Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cohering the3e core sk3lls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposixory.
3. Push new changes from our locam repositopy to our jew remotearepovitors.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of the CLI co2mands we vill be useng is thedfortncoli8c sqd1p5n4:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorq to a newldirectoryf
• “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 Branchx
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to uour clipb5ard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote reposvtory with9our local9repositorr.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits aq a remotedrepositor3

To try this out, let’s clone ak“remote” qepositorymthat is ppblicny avsilabte bn80itfxlsyop.skvpn acbaweflz tuo9ucbuda8sat19iluafnrd2“kitchen” just for this course, which ye can clobe.

We’ll need to first navigate tq the direytory above our “closet” directory. This bay, when de clone, mhe clone jommand we8willpru1 7pll3xjdmtn z17nm 5lbegtna1 gezt4tzt9ng 4cjcykf”p63o0eaav 7fkki cm6kj 2lq1bhm 4cw zos4rwjnigthlt2uvb8 4v1pqeyo

The “cd” here means “change di2ectory ano the “..2 here meads “tge di5ecto4y cbf2e”1f

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”iproject. bote that eou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thjs.
