Clone it :busts_in_silhouette:

You need to clone (download) it to local machine using

$ git clone https://github.com/Your_Username/cbcpp.git

This makes a local copy of repository in your machine.

Once you have cloned the cbcpp repository in Github, move to that folder first using change directory command on linux and Mac.

# This will change directory to a folder cbcpp
$ cd cbcpp

Move to this folder for all other commands.

Create a branch

# Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):
$ cd first-contributions

Now create a branch using the git checkout command:
$ git checkout -b <add-your-name>

# For example:
$ git checkout -b add-alonzo-church

Make necessary changes and commit those changes

Now open Contributors.md file in a text editor, add your name to it, and then save the file. 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 Contributors.md

Now commit those changes using the git commit command:

$ git commit -m "Add <your-name> to Contributors list"

replacing <your-name> with your name.

Push changes to GitHub

Push your changes using the command git push:

$ git push origin <add-your-name>

replacing <add-your-name> with the name of the branch you created earlier.

Submit your changes for review

If you go to your repository on GitHub, you’ll see a Compare & pull request button.Now submit the pull request.

Keeping your fork synced with this repository

First, switch to the master branch.

$ git checkout master

Then add my repo’s url as upstream remote url:

$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/Roshanjossey/first-contributions

This is a way of telling git that another version of this project exists in the specified url and we’re calling it upstream. Once the changes are merged, fetch the new version of my repository:

$ git fetch upstream

Here we’re fetching all the changes in my fork (upstream remote). Now, you need to merge the new revision of my repository into your master branch.

$ git rebase upstream/master

Here you’re applying all the changes you fetched to master branch. If you push the master branch now, your fork will also have the changes:

$ git push origin master

Notice here you’re pushing to the remote named origin. At this point I have merged your branch <add-your-name> into my master branch, and you have merged my master branch into your own master branch. Your branch is now no longer needed, so you may delete it:

$ git branch -d <add-your-name>

and you can delete the version of it in the remote repository, too:

$ git push origin --delete <add-your-name>

This isn’t necessary, but the name of this branch shows its rather special purpose. Its life can be made correspondingly short.
