Welcome, let's take the baby steps towards your Open Source Journey together. Might be intimidating in the begining, but don't worry you will learn and enjoy a lot throughout the process. May the source be with you.
Let's take a step wise look into how you can make your first Pull Request.
Fork this repository by clicking on the fork button on the top of this page. This will create a copy of this repository in your account.
Now clone the forked repository to your machine. Go to your GitHub account, open the forked repository, click on the code button and then click the copy to clipboard icon.
Open a terminal and run the following git command:
git clone https://github.com/<username>/FirstContributions
Use the git checkout
command to create a new branch
git checkout -b <your-branch-name>
Create a new file with the format <your-github-username>.md
inside the contributors
directory.
For example, if my username is
arnabsen1729
then the file name would bearnabsen1729.md
.
Inside the file add anything you want, maybe a short bio about yourself, your hobbies etc.
Push your changes using the command git push:
git push origin <add-your-branch-name>
