Github Level 101

You are not required to complete the Github Mastery activities in order complete other modules in this repo. However, you will need to be comfortable forking, opening pull requests, and synching your fork with this repository. These skills are covered by the first two Github activities.

To get started, you will need to:

• Have a Github account. If you don't have one, you can create a Github account for free

• Make sure that you have git installed on your computer

• Get comfortable with navigating your computer from the command line. Here's an example of a free crash course on using the command line, on YouTube

• HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BEFORE YOU START: Set up an ssh-key or cache your user credentials to ease your access to Github

• If you need help with terminology, see the Github glossary

Part 1

1. Fork this repository and clone your fork to your computer. See the "Forking a Repository" instructions on this page.
2. Create and checkout a new branch. I recommend doing this from the command line:

git branch github-level1
git checkout github-level1

3. Edit this document to add your name, Github handle, and link to your forked badges repo in the table above
4. Submit a pull request to this repo. See this documentation for creating pull requests on Github.

Part 2

To complete this activity, you need to wait for your pull request from Activity 1 to be merged. The "Level 101" badge will not be displayed on your own fork until you complete the following tasks.

1. Add the woccode/woccode-badges repo as a remote repo on your local computer repository.

TIP: It is a common practice to use the alias "upstream" for the location of the original repo. This can be done by running

git remote add upstream [email protected]:woccode/woccode-badges.git

or

git remote add upstream https://github.com/woccode/woccode-badges.git

depending on which authentication protocol you are using.

2. Sync the main branch on your local computer repo to match the main branch of the upstream repo by running

git checkout main
git pull upstream main

4. Bring your fork on Github up-to-date by pushing the main branch from you local computer to the origin repo by running

git push origin main
