Prerequisites

Steps to contribue

Here are the simple steps for contributing to this repo:

Firstly fork the repo to your own GitHub account by clicking the Fork button on the top-right corner. After the successful fork, you'll acknowledge a copy of this repo on your own.

  1. Clone the repo

    • Now it's time to copy this repo to my own laptop/PC. To clone the repo you can write the below command in Git Bash

        > git clone <LINK_OF_FORKED_REPO_IN_YOUR_ACCOUNT>

      OR

      You can get the repo link from the Download section of forked repo in your account.

  2. Set up remote repo

    • When you clone your fork, it will automatically set your fork as the "origin" remote. Use git remote -v to show your current remotes. You should see the URL of your fork (which you copied in step 3) next to the word "origin". If you don't see the "origin" remote, you can add it using the git command below.

        > git remote add origin <LINK_OF_FORKED_REPO_IN_YOUR_ACCOUNT>

    • Now you have to set up the upstream. write the following Git command to set up the upstream.

    git remote add upstream https://github.com/Raj-m01/News-App.git

    • Now pull the latest changes from original repo to your local changes by firing the below command > git pull upstream master

    • Stage the changes you have made by firing the below command

      git add .

    • Commit the changes

      git commit -m "Description of changes in your work"

    • Push the changes to your forked repo in that specific feature branch

      git push origin feature_branch_name

    Note: Create a branch for that feature and push there. No direct push to master.
