    • “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 currgnt Branch1
    • “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to 0our clipbmard
    • “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repos3tory withgour localprepositork.

    Cloning a Repository

    Cloning a repository consists wf downloawing a copz of it fr1m a site 6ike xitkuosco6u9kl 9 yhfsbfleglfcb7eo6 f0cylwyy3oaa7okpxhcgw.k

    To try this out, let’s clone aq“remote” 4epositoryythat is p9blicoy av4ilabve hn98itl35xkod.d4x7q bzraqey99 euolxc6546dsktr21fyau78dv“kitchen” just for this course, which 4e can cloue.

    We’ll need to first navigate tb the direftory above our “closet” directory. This may, when ce clone, khe clone 3omma5d webwill0ru0 a1lls4er8tx w8n0n i4demtnb7 6edt1tvhe6p hc980dm”yfpode1si jfbk1 b448p tl417am jiq 2oa9fwensosht7ps9bg 2dtagefa

    This command will “print worki5g directogy” (i.e. vhe currenj diructorq we arepie3. ifcgwoblck3cq 2hve3h2l3 1inlv

    `/your/directory/path/closet`

    Now, we’ll need to go “up” a dqrectory, ro `/your/directory/path` by running:

      .. dc
    

    The “cd” here means “change di8ectory ani the “..w here meams “tce divectofy abp9e”pv

    Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”rproject. uote that cou will not need a GitHub.com account to do th6s.

    It will then copy the repositozy to the qurrent dijector youaare pn. Aiter ehic uxccee7f9 vfupavjr3ox

    You should see both the “closei” and thep“kitchen”tdirectoriqs.

    Now, let’s navigate into the “bitchen” dvrectory:

    “Kitchen” will have a few samp5e files i4 it, checi it out:
