A very warm welcome to all those who have landed here! 👋 This open source community is made to ease the work of all the CIEM students who are wiling to Keep their GitHub Green throughout the month of June
To contribute follow the guidelines in Contributors.md
Everyone is welcome to contribute. Let's help each other by making little contributions and taking small initiatives.
If you don't have git on your machine, install it.
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 clone button and then click the copy to clipboard icon.
Open a terminal and run the following git command:
git clone "url you just copied"
where "url you just copied" (without the quotation marks) is the url to this repository (your fork of this project). See the previous steps to obtain the url.
For example:
git clone https://github.com/Your_Username/Keep-Github-Green.git
where Your_Username
is your GitHub username. Here you're copying the contents of the Practical-Files repository on GitHub to your computer.
Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):
cd Keep-Github-Green
Now create a branch using the git checkout
command:
git checkout -b <add-your-new-branch-name>
For example:
git checkout -b my-name
If you go to the project directory and execute the command git status
, you'll see there are changes.
Add those changes to the branch you just created using the git add .
command:
git add <file name>
or
git add .
Now commit those changes using the git commit
command:
git commit -m "your message"
replacing <your-message>
with the changes that you've added.
Push your changes using the command git push
:
git push origin <add-your-branch-name>
replacing <add-your-branch-name>
with the name of the branch you created earlier.
If you go to your repository on GitHub, you'll see a Compare & pull request
button. Click on that button.
Now submit the pull request.
Soon, I'll be merging all your changes into the master branch of this project. You will get a notification email once the changes have been merged.
Your contribution matters. Thank you for contributing! ✨
