Lecture 119:- Github With a Team Member

To work with a team member on Github, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Create a Github account: The first step to working with Github is to create an account on the platform. Go to www.github.com and sign up for a new account.
2. Create a repository: Once you have created your Github account, you can create a new repository where you and your team member can collaborate. Click on the "New Repository" button on your Github dashboard and follow the instructions to create a new repository.
3. Add your team member as a collaborator: To allow your team member to contribute to the repository, you need to add them as a collaborator. Go to the "Settings" tab of your repository, click on "Collaborators" and add your team member's Github username or email address.
4. Clone the repository: To start working on the project, you and your team member will need to clone the repository to your local machines. You can use Git to clone the repository using the following command:

bashCopy code

git clone <repository_url>

Replace <repository_url> with the URL of your Github repository.

1. Create a new branch: Once you have cloned the repository, create a new branch where you can work on your changes. You can use the following command to create a new branch:

cssCopy code

git checkout -b <branch_name>

Replace <branch_name> with a descriptive name for your branch.

1. Make changes: After creating a new branch, you can make changes to the codebase. Once you have made your changes, commit them to your local branch using the following command:

sqlCopy code

git add . git commit -m "Commit message"

Replace "Commit message" with a brief description of your changes.

1. Push changes to Github: After committing your changes, push them to Github using the following command:

perlCopy code

git push origin <branch_name>

Replace <branch_name> with the name of your local branch.

1. Create a pull request: Once you have pushed your changes to Github, create a pull request to merge your changes into the main branch. Your team member can review your changes and merge them into the main branch if they are satisfied.
2. Resolve conflicts: If your team member has made changes to the same code that you have modified, you may encounter conflicts when merging your changes. You will need to resolve these conflicts before your changes can be merged into the main branch.
3. Repeat the process: Repeat this process for each set of changes you and your team member make to the project. Remember to create a new branch for each set of changes to avoid conflicts and ensure that your changes are properly tracked.
