This repository aims to be able to learn how to use the tools that Github allows us to use. To participate in this repository you must first open a fork where you can edit and add only the following options.
- Add your name
- Add your GitHub profile
- You can add your country
- You can add a link to a project that you want to support the community.
When you are considering using a font, the font license is one of the first things you should look for and read. It outlines how you agree to use the fonts, and font licensing is different between different type projects & type foundries.
The Recursive project is licensed under the SIL Open Font License v1.1. This is a free software license that permits you to use the font software under a set of conditions. Please refer to the full text of the license for details about the permissions, conditions, and disclaimers. If you're not comfortable with command line, here are tutorials using GUI tools.
If you don't have git on your machine, install it.
Fork this repository by clicking on the fork button on the top of this page. This will create a copy of this repository in your account.
Now clone the forked repository to your machine. Go to your GitHub account, open the forked repository, click on the code button and then click the copy to clipboard icon.
Open a terminal and run the following git command:
git clone "url you just copied"
where "url you just copied" (without the quotation marks) is the url to this repository (your fork of this project). See the previous steps to obtain the url.
For example:
git clone [email protected]:this-is-you/first-contributions.git
where this-is-you
is your GitHub username. Here you're copying the contents of the first-contributions repository on GitHub to your computer.
Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):
cd first-contributions
Now create a branch using the git switch
command:
git switch -c your-new-branch-name
For example:
git switch -c add-alonzo-church
Now open the Contributors.md
file. Copy the information that is in it, edit it adding the information you should put and then add it `Contributions.md
If you go to the project directory and execute the command git status
, you'll see there are changes.
Add those changes to the branch you just created using the git add
command:
git add Contributors.md
Now commit those changes using the git commit
command:
git commit -m "Add your-name to Contributors list"
replacing your-name
with your name.
Push your changes using the command git push
:
git push -u origin your-branch-name
replacing your-branch-name
with the name of the branch you created earlier.
