How to Download

Part 3 - Cloning forked repository

• Clone the repository from your account into the ~/dev directory.
  • if you do not have a ~/dev directory, make one by executing the following command:
    • mkdir ~/dev
  • navigate to the ~/dev directory by executing the following command:
    • cd ~/dev
  • clone the project by executing the following command:
    • git clone https://github.com/${MYUSERNAME}/${NAMEOFPROJECT}

Part 4 - Setting upstream remote

• Link the local repository just created with the original you forked from
  • If new content is added to this repository, you can pull the new changes, but the remote 'origin' points to your forked version
  • Add another remote and call it 'upstream':
    • git remote add upstream https://github.com/Java-Full-Stack-TEK/javascript_day-2-exercises
• To fetch or pull changes, we tell git to look at the Github upstream remote (pointing here) instead of the origin remote (which points to your fork):
  • For git to try and merge changes, we use git pull :
    • git pull upstream master
  • In case there of a merge conflict, we can update all remote branches, but save merging for later using git fetch :
    • git fetch upstream
