lab 37 Cloning Repositories

Goals

Go to the work directory

Go to the working directory and make a clone of your hello repository.

Execute:

cd ..
pwd
ls

NOTE: Now in the work directory.

Output:

$ cd ..
$ pwd
/Users/jim/Downloads/git_tutorial/work
$ ls
hello

At this point you should be in your “work” directory. There should be a single repository here named “hello”.

Create a clone of the hello repository

Let’s make a clone of the repository.

Execute:

git clone hello cloned_hello
ls

Output:

$ git clone hello cloned_hello
Cloning into 'cloned_hello'...
done.
$ ls
cloned_hello
hello

There should now be two repositories in your work directory: the original “hello” repository and the newly cloned “cloned_hello” repository.
