11. Fork an open source project Fork Copies source from upstream to origin
12. Fork an open source project O R I G I N ( y o u o n G i t H u b ) U P S T R E A M ( o p e n s o u rc e p ro j e c t o n G i t H u b ) Click
13. Clone your fork of an open source project to your local computer git clone <url> git status git remote -v
14. Add a remote Let’s create a nickname of the open source project. upstream sounds like a good nickname. git remote -v git remote add upstream <url> git remote -v
15. Fork an open source project Clone your fork of an open source project ~/myprojects/wsc-music https://github.com/<you>/wsc-music https://github.com/gentlecodegarden/wsc-music R E V I E W

18. fetch, rebase, push my workflow for keeping things updated git fetch upstream git rebase upstream/master git push origin master
19. branch, checkout A feature branch keeps your new contribution neat and tidy. Doing work on a feature branch helps avoid merge headaches later. git branch new-feature git checkout new-feature git checkout -b new-feature
20. git status Pro tip: use it often. git status
21. git add Adds file(s) to the staging area to keep ready before committing changes. Real world analogy: Boarding an airplane git add <file(s)> git status
22. git commit Commit file(s) in the staging area to the repo history. Real world analogy: Airplane takes off with all its passengers git commit -m'Add commit message.' git status git log Note: The commit exists in the local repo only at this point.
23. git push Shares the local commit with a remote repo. git push origin new-feature Note: You must have "push" privileges to push to a remote repo.
24. Another feature Update the local repo with upstream changes. Create a new feature branch. Update the origin repo. git checkout master git checkout -b another-feature git fetch upstream git rebase upstream/master git push origin another-feature
25. git add <files> git commit -m"Add commit message" git status git log git fetch upstream git rebase upstream/master git push origin another-feature • Add changed files to staging area of local repo. • Commit changed files to local branch and repo. • Update (fetch and rebase) the local repo with any upstream changes. • Push feature branch to the origin repo. Another feature: add, commit, fetch, rebase, push
26. – A N O N Y M O U S W S C A L U M N I “Wow! Write, Speak, Code changes lives. Remember you can go at your pace, ask questions, make mistakes, learn, and have fun too. Believe.”

28. Fact: Some projects are more welcoming and encouraging than others. Myth: Your talent, potential, and future success are defined by a maintainer’s response to your pull request. Fact: Your PR may be rejected. Fact: You may need to make changes based on constructive review comments. Myth: Maintainers are entitled to belittle a pull request or be crummy to you. Fact: It’s not you. It’s them. And their loss. Find another project that values your contribution. L E T ’ S M A K E A P U L L R E Q U E S T
