This is the repository used for conducting the introductory Git/GitHub session. You can use this repository to make your first open-source contribution.
You need to add a file called yourname.md in the teamList folder. There is already a template.md
file in the teamList which you can use. All you need to do to make your first contribution is to fill in your
details in the template.md, save it as yourname.md and create a PR.
- Fork this repository and clone the forked repo to your local machine. When you clone a repository, git automatically makes a new folder within the folder where you ran your clone command. Make sure that you are in the correct working directory by changing into the cloned directory.
$ cd get-started-with-git- Create a new branch and name it anything you like.
$ git checkout -b branch-name- Now, fill in the template and save it as a copy using the naming convention as mentioned above.
- Commit and push to your forked repository.
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "added yourname's details"
$ git push origin branch-name- Go to your forked repository on GitHub, create a PR from
forked-repo:branch-nametomain-repo:master - Wait for your PR to get approved and merged by the repository maintainers. It is important that you regularly check the comments/discussions under your PR. In real life scenarios, your PR would not get merged instantly a majority number of times. Maintainers would suggest many changes to your contribution before it is finally merged to the code base.
