Summer 2021

This is the git repository for the class. It will be updated on a class by class basis.

You will submit your assignments by doing pull requests. You will need to create a Github account if you do not have one already. Fork this repository by clicking on the Fork button. Then clone your forked repository with this command, replacing YOUR-USERNAME with your Github username:

git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/JSFunSummer2021.git

Add the original repository as a remote to your forked repository:

cd JSFunSummer2021
git remote add upstream https://github.com/AlbanyCanCodeCourses/JSFunSummer2021.git
git remove -v
# You should see your upstream set as https://github.com/AlbanyCanCodeCourses/JSFunSummer2021.git

At any point, if you see the message "Please tell me who you are" in your command line output, you will need to setup your command line to use your Github account. Follow the instruction underneath where it says "Run", replacing "[email protected]" and "Your Name" with your information.

On Making Pull Requests

Whenever you are ready to submit your work, commit your changes and push to your forked repository.

git push origin master

Follow the guide Creating a pull request from a fork to make a pull request. The "original repository you created your fork from" that the guide refers to in Step 1 is the AlbanyCanCodeCourses's repository.
