Github Demo Steps

0. do you have a github.com account? make one! =D (it's great for showcasing your involvement in projects!) 1. find judytuna/the-new-field on github 2. press "fork" 3. after it's done, verify that you're on your OWN copy of the repo 4. find the https link on the right side and copy it 5. go into your terminal and type "git clone " and paste the thing you just copied. (this command pulls down a copy of the code on your own copy of the repo). 6. cd into the new directory that you just made. at this point, you can look at .git/config to see that your "origin" is set up to be your own repo 7. open up index.html in your text editor and add some stuff. save! 8. in your terminal, type "git status" and see that you have unstaged changes 9. stage them. you could type "git add ." (note the dot!) to add everything. OR, and judy likes this a lot, you can type "git add -p" to step through all your changes and verify that you want them. 10. now type "git status" and see that your changes are now staged, but they are still uncommitted. 11. to make the commit, type: $ git commit -m 'some commit message here' 12. now type "git status" and see that you have no uncommitted changes. This means your changes are "checked in to git" on your own local machine, BUT your account on github has no idea about the changes yet. 13. type "git push origin master" 14. look on your own github project page for your change 15. find "submit a pull request" 16. start dancing in the aisle. do not stop until you see your pull request show up on judy's project page for "pull requests"
