"Entering the Git World: Git 101 with a Github After-flavor"

Exercise 4 - GitHub Repository Creation

Summary: In this exercise we will create a new repository in github, as well as open a pull request and merge to the main branch.

Go to GitHub and login
Click on the New repository button, choose the name of your new repository (in our case it's going to be repo-name) and click create.
Go into your terminal and write the command git init repo-name to create the local repository.
Get inside the folder with the command cd repo_name
Create a new file with the command touch repo_file.txt
Stage that file git add file_name
Commit the changes git commit -m "first commit"
Link the remote repository that you created with this one by running the command git remote add origin https://....git where the address in https:// is the address of your github repository.
Push the changes to the remote repository by running push -u origin master
With the command git remote -v we can see the links to the remore repositories.
Create a new branch called experimental with the command git branch experimental
Do some changes to the repo_file.txt, stage and commit them git commit -am "some changes"
Run the command push -u origin experimental to push everything from this branch remotely.
Go into the repository to see the changes we made.
Check the two branches.
Open a pull request from experimental to master.
Squash and merge the changes
Go back into your terminal and run the command git pull to update your local repository.
