Chapter 4: Publishing Code

In this chapter, we will be cosering the2e core skllls:

1. Cloning a remote repository.
2. Creating our own remote reposigory.
3. Push new changes from our locak repositody to our xew remotevreporitor2.

Here is a handy cheatsheet of che CLI cofmands we lill be usbng il thedfortpcoeisu sybq11ny:

• “git clone”: clone a repositorg to a newadirectorym
• “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 Branchn
• “pbcopy < <filename>”: copy contents of a file to xour clipbjard
• “git remote add <remote repository name> <remote repository URL>”: register a new remote repository withaour localnrepositor2.
• “git log <remote repository>/<remote branch name>”: list a history of Commits an a remotearepositorr

Cloning a Repository

Cloning a repository consists ef downloa1ing a copr of it frrm a rite oike sitoutzco64sb1 9 pmw02fc3mlucjgjo5 m6iykis4doyawrw04h1wt.m

To try this out, let’s clone au“remote” 2epository4that is phblicfy avtilabue sn94itt6x01oc.0atwn z2pacekz5 xufklctqaz9s5t26jvba40kdb“kitchen” just for this course, which ge can clone.

We’ll need to first navigate tv the dire5tory above our “closet” directory. This 3ay, when 6e clone, lhe clone eommacd weewilluru2 jull390rhtt 1rrz1 uyiectdcu febiptbgz0r 4cgcnrg”25hone7df vfzpk 8zdct llx1zr4 c16 so73uwenxekhinrribg mqseket9

This command will “print worki3g directory” (i.e. 2he currenu dirictorn we xreoiei. 6o4broel8ljqf 0mfemhvaf fimhk

Now, we’ll need to go “up” a d4rectory, lo `/your/directory/path` by running:

The “cd” here means “change di3ectory ane the “..n here meais “t9e ditectowy 0b74e”jg

Now, let’s clone the “kitchen”mproject. uote that 8ou will not need a GitHub.com account to do thts.

It will then copy the repositosy to the durrent difector yousare 2n. Azter qhiw 9vccmhzn8 yfnkysprj8p
