or
you can get a link from green button click to copy that link that link must be from your own forked copy.
Type following command in terminal window
git checkout -b new-branch-name
Once you have completed these steps, you are ready to start contributing whatever programming language you know, you can contribute your code in that. However, Your code files must be in respective folder. By doing this repository will be organized and well maintained. hope you follow this. I'll add your namme in contributors list as you start contibuting.
Type following commands
git add .
git commit -m "message about commit"
Next, you’ll have to specify a new remote upstream repository for us to sync with the fork. This will be the original repository that you forked from. You’ll have to do this with the git remote add command.
git remote add upstream https://github.com/ALLINONE4298/Hacktober2021.git
In this example, upstream is the shortname we have supplied for the remote repository since in terms of Git, “upstream” refers to the repository that you cloned from. If you want to add a remote pointer to the repository of a collaborator, you may want to provide that collaborator’s username or a shortened nickname for the shortname.
To get latest code Type following command
git pull upstream main
Type following command
git push --set-upstream origin new-branch-name
At this point, you are ready to make a pull request to the original repository.
You should navigate to your forked repository, and press the “New pull request” button on your left-hand side of the page.
If there is no merge conflict then owner will merge your pull request. Have patience and contribute more.
