Making changes

Generally, we use a standar git pull request workflow that is outlined nicely here

Initial one time setup

  1. Fork the canvas-lms-js-css repository into your own account using the fork button:
  2. Fork Repo
  3. Clone your forked repository to your local machine: git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/canvas-lms-js-css.git
  4. Now you can see all your code in the canvas-lms-js-css directory
  5. Add the upstream remote so you can keep your code in sync with the beyondz-code: git remote add upstream https://github.com/beyondz-z/canvas-lms-js-css

Ongoing changes

  1. Always start by getting your local code and your forked code on github up to date with the upstream beyond-z repository code:
git checkout staging;
git pull upstream staging;
git push origin staging;
  1. Now create a branch to work on your project / changes in: git checkout -b <branch_name>
  2. Make your changes, add your files to the local index, and commit them:
git add <your_files>
git commit -m "A nice message describing the change"
  1. Push your changes to your fork on github: git push origin <branch_name>
  2. Login to gihub and open the pull request against beyond-z/staging
  • Make sure and give the pull request a nice title and description
  1. Once your pull request has been merged, you can delete your branch:
git checkout staging;
git pull upstream staging;
git branch -d <branch_name>;
git push origin staging;
