How to Collaborate:

1. Fork the repository to your own GitHub account.

2. Clone the repository to your local machine

$ git clone "https://www.github.com/{Username}/Advanced_Linux.git"

where username is your GitHub account username.

3. Create a branch where you can do your local work. Never work on master branch as we do not allow master commits except by admins.

$ git branch {branchname}
$ git checkout branchname

4. Do your work and stage your changes.

$ git add <filename>

5. Commit you changes with a commit message containing your name, file(s) worked upon, changes added.

$ git commit -m "Name| files| Changes"

6. Push changes to your forked repository

$ git push -u origin branchname

7. Create a pull request to the upstream repository.

Synchronize forked repository with Upstream repository

1. Create upstream as our repository

$ git remote add upstream "https://github.com/theabhishek07/Advanced_Linux"

2. Fetch upstream changes in local machine

$ git fetch upstream

3. Switch to master branch

$ git checkout master

4. Merge changes in local machine

$ git merge upstream/master

5. Push changes to your forked GitHub repository

$ git push -f origin master
