• Lab 02a - Madlib (due 03/15)
• Lab 02b - Make Change (due 03/16)
• Lab 03b - Average Number (due 03/17)

• git branch to check that you're on the main branch, use git checkout main to go to the main branch if needed.

• git status to check if your local main branch is up to date with origin/main on Github.

• git pull if needed to pull any recent changes to your local repository

• Create a new branch and switch to it.

  • Option 1:

    • git branch <YOUR_NAME-SECTION-LAB_NUMBER>
    • git checkout <YOUR_NAME-SECTION-LAB_NUMBER>

  • Option 2:

    The -b flag can be used after the checkout command to combine these two steps:

    git checkout -b <YOUR_NAME-SECTION-LAB_NUMBER>

  e.g. My branch for the "Lab 01 - Bio" in the HTML/CSS section would be named: keegan-htmlcss-lab01. The name can vary a bit from this example, but please keep the chosen formatting consistent from one lab to another.

• git add <FILENAME> to add a specific file or git add . to add everything in the current dicrectory

• git commit -m "your commit message" to commit your work

• A remote branch will need to be created for each new local branch. Git will usually display the proper command to do this when a new branch is pushed for the first time.

  The command is:

  git push --set-upstream origin <BRANCH_NAME>

  OR

  git push -u origin <BRANCH_NAME>

• After successfully pushing your new branch to Github, you should see the option to create a Pull Request for your branch on the main repo page.

• If you don't see that message, you'll have to navigate to your new remote branch

• Once you've navigated to your individual branch, you'll find the option to create a Pull Request in the "Contribute" dropdown.

Necessary corrections or adjustments will be posted as comments on the Pull Request on Github and the Pull Request will be closed. When the corrections are made, submit the Pull Request again for checking.

Corrections will be made only to that particular branch.

• git checkout <YOUR_NAME-SECTION-LAB_NUMBER>

• Add and commit updated files.

• git push to push your changes up to the remote repository on GitHub

• Only one Pull Request is allowed per branch.

  • If a Pull Request is already open for the branch, a message will be added to the current Pull Request for the new commits.
  • If a Pull Request is not already open for the branch a new Pull Request will need to be created.

• Once a lab is complete, its branch will be merged into the main branch.
