python4 #Hacktoberfest

Steps to follow 📜

0. Star The Repository 🌟

Star the repository by pressing the topmost-right button to start your wonderful journey.

1. Fork it 🍴

You can get your own fork/copy of Python4 by using the Fork button.

2. Clone it 👥

NOTE: commands are to be executed on Linux, Mac, and Windows(using Powershell)

You need to clone or (download) it to local machine using

$ git clone https://github.com/Coderich-Community/python4.git

This makes a local copy of the repository in your machine. Once you have cloned the Python-Sala repository in Github, move to that folder first using change directory command on Linux, Mac, and Windows(PowerShell to be used).

# This will change directory to a folder python4
$ cd python4

Move to this folder for all other commands.

3. Set it up ⬆️

Run the following commands to see that your local copy has a reference to your forked remote repository in Github

$ git remote -v
origin  https://github.com/Your_Username/python4.git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/Your_Username/python4.git (push)

Now, let's add a reference to the original Python-4 repository using

4. Sync it ♻️

Always keep your local copy of the repository updated with the original repository. Before making any changes and/or in an appropriate interval, run the following commands carefully to update your local repository.

# Fetch all remote repositories and delete any deleted remote branches
$ git fetch --all --prune
# Switch to `main` branch
$ git checkout main
# Reset local `main` branch to match the `upstream` repository's `main` branch
$ git reset --hard upstream/main
# Push changes to your forked ` python4` repo
$ git push origin main

5. Create a new branch ‼️

Whenever you are going to contribute. Please create a separate branch using command and keep your main branch clean (i.e. synced with remote branch).

# It will create a new branch with name Branch_Name and switch to branch Folder_Name
$ git checkout -b BranchName

Create a separate branch for contribution and try to use the same name of the branch as of folder.

To switch to the desired branch

# To switch from one folder to other
$ git checkout BranchName

To add the changes to the branch. Use

# To add all files to branch Folder_Name
$ git add .

Type in a message relevant for the code reviewer using

# This message get associated with all files you have changed
$ git commit -m 'relevant message'

Now, Push your awesome work to your remote repository using

# To push your work to your remote repository
$ git push -u origin BranchName

We will do our best to merge as much as possible from everyone. However, time is limited and the merge conflicts are horrible 😲 <3
