Your solution to BRANCHES AREN'T JUST FOR BIRDS didn't match the expected output.

Try again!

I also receive this error using GitHub for Windows.

SOLVED I hadn't run through GET GIT and GITHUBBIN, as I already had a GitHub account. Running through them solved the issue.

I'm receiving the following error: the requested url returned error: 403
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/jlord/pathwork.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403

@Baltimorejones problably you already solve this problem but mayby not... its PATCHWORK not PATHWORK like in your URL, so it's should be https://github.com/jlord/patchwork.git

If anyone is still having trouble with this, please open an issue at the new repo for Git-it ✨

If you get this error then you are trying to push to the wrong branch. You should be pushing your changes to your branch on your fork, not the original. If /jlord/ is in the URL path then it is not going to your account, which is why you get the 403 and are unable to access.

You can see what remotes you have set up and their addresses with:

git remote -v

Check that you are pushing your changes to the correct place.

I will update the tips at the bottom of the challenge for this 👍

1- If you are in this forlder: /usr/local/git-it/patchwork/contributors
2- Go back up one step using (means to: /usr/local/git-it/patchwork) using cd ..
3- do : $ git add -A
4- check your: $ git status
5- You will git this message
On branch add-YOURBRANCHNAME
nothing to commit, working tree clean
6- $ git commit -m "YOUR MESSAGE"
On branch add-YOURBRANCHNAM
nothing to commit, working tree clean
7- NOW DO THIS : $ git push --set-upstream origin add-YOURBRANCHNAME
This should fix it : here is the output
bash-3.2# git push --set-upstream origin add-YOURBRANCHNAME
