Day 24: If you commit, I will push you

Practie with add, commit, push and a little pull

  1. Let’s start by editing our index.md file on Github. Simply go to docs/index.md and fix the name and Education portion in Github

  1. After you make your edits, then use the web UI to commit them.

  1. Now, we have a different version on GitHub than we do on our local repository. We need to git pull

  2. Instead of working on GitHub, let’s use VSCode to make additional edits to our resume.

  3. Once you have some edits done, let’s sync them with GitHub. We can use commands or VSCode.

    A. git add --all: Is telling git that which files you want to store in this ‘memory’.
    B. git commit -m 'my message': Is telling git to label all the files that have been added with the message and prep them for ‘lift-off’.
    C. git push: sends the files to the cloud.

That is the flow!

What the fork?

Now is time for you to find a partner that will edit your resume. You are going to want to keep the same partner.

  1. Each of you fork the other student’s repository that has edits.
  2. Now, you want to clone that forked repository to your computer.
  3. On your local version of the forked repository, do the following;
    A. Create a new file called edits.md and save it in the main folder or the repository.
    B. Make a few recommendations or notes about what each of you discussed about your resumes in the file.
    C. add, commit, push your edits.
    D. Go to the forked repo on GitHub and check to see if the edits.md file is in yours.
  4. Now, create a pull request to get your edits into your partner’s original repo.
