Try Git
Using Git To use Git on the command line, you will need to download, install, and configure Git on your computer. You can also install GitHub CLI to use GitHub from the command line. For more information, see "About GitHub CLI." If you want to work with Git locally, but do not want to use the command line, you can instead download and install the GitHub Desktop client. If you do not need to work with files locally, GitHub lets you complete many Git-related actions directly in the browser, including: Setting up Git Download and install the latest version of Git.Note: If you are using a Chrome OS device, additional set up is required:Install a terminal emulator such as Termux from the Google Play Store on your Chrome OS device.From the terminal emulator that you installed, install Git. Authenticating with GitHub from Git When you connect to a GitHub repository from Git, you will need to authenticate with GitHub using either HTTPS or SSH. Connecting over HTTPS (recommended) Connecting over SSH
Error: Permission denied (publickey)
This terribly nondescript error simply means that the server rejected your connection; the most common reasons are explained below. Sudo or sudon't? You should not be using the sudo command with Git. If you have a very good reason you must use sudo, then ensure you are using it with every command (it's probably just better to use su to get a shell as root at that point). If you generate SSH keys without sudo and then try to use a command like sudo git push, you won't be using the same keys that you generated. Check that you are connecting to the correct server Typing is hard, we all know it. To make sure you are connecting to the right domain, you can enter the following command: ssh -vT git@github.com# OpenSSH_5.6p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8r 8 Feb 2011# debug1: Reading configuration data /Users/you/.ssh/config# debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config# debug1: Applying options for *# debug1: Connecting to github.com [192.30.252.131] port 22.

A Holiday Analogy About How Git Works
Deploying with Git
Last updated 12 October 2015 Git is a powerful decentralized revision control system, and is the means for deploying apps to Heroku. You don’t need to be proficient with Git to use it for deploying code to Heroku, but you may find it valuable to learn the basics. Tracking your app in git Heroku apps expect the app directory structure at the root of the repository. Before you can push an app to Heroku, you’ll need to initialize a local Git repository and commit your files to it. $ cd myapp $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in .git/ $ git add . $ git commit -m "my first commit" Created initial commit 5df2d09: my first commit 44 files changed, 8393 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100644 README create mode 100644 Procfile create mode 100644 app/controllers/source_file ... This is a local repository, now residing inside the .git directory. Creating a Heroku remote Git remotes are references to remote repositories. By default, Heroku configures HTTP as the Git transport. !

Installing Git
There are a lot of different ways to use Git. There are the original command line tools, and there are many graphical user interfaces of varying capabilities. For this book, we will be using Git on the command line. For one, the command line is the only place you can run all Git commands – most of the GUIs only implement some subset of Git functionality for simplicity. If you know how to run the command line version, you can probably also figure out how to run the GUI version, while the opposite is not necessarily true. So we will expect you to know how to open Terminal in Mac or Command Prompt or Powershell in Windows.
The Second Pull Request Could be (Much) Better
When considering pull requests on Github, we need to keep in mind that even if someone’s first pull request is not 100% perfect, his/her second one could be much better (if he/she is willing to continue the contribution). I have observed this phenomenon several times, and that is one of the reasons why I want to carefully review and help with people’s first pull requests. I’m looking at the future, instead of only the current pull request. A fresh example is Leonardo Collado-Torres’s recent (and the second) pull request to the blogdown package, in which he brought a very useful RStudio addin that makes it really neat to upload and insert images to your blog posts: This is useful because it saves users from the headache of understanding the special static/ directory in the Hugo system. You just upload your image, and this addin will copy it to the right place and insert the right Markdown or HTML code in your post.
