1. Fork this repository.

2. Clone on the repository to your local machine

   git clone <git repo>
   

3. Navigate to the cloned repository.

   cd filename
   

4. Create a new branch to work on with

   git checkout -b my-new-branch

   Time to make some changes to the cloned repository on your local machine.

5. Add your work with

   git add .
   

6. Save your work, by committing it.

   git commit -m "first commit"

7. Let's try pushing it on a remote repository, in our case GitHub!

   git push origin my-new-branch
   

8. Ready to share your work with others? So let's generate a Pull Request! To do this, go to your forked GitHub repository and Create a Pull Request.

An easy way to avoid conflicts is to add an upstream for your git repo, as other PRs may be merged while you're working on your branch/fork.

git remote add upstream <git repo>

Verify that the new remote was been added by

git remote -v

To pull new changes from the parent repository, just do

git merge upstream/master
