A repo containing GitHub for programmatic examples
Creates a temp workspace
mkdir /worspace/tmp
cd /worspace/tmp
git clone : https://github.com/Github-Foundation-Learning/Github-Examples.git[email protected]:Github-Foundation-Learning/Github-Examples.git
SSH requires that a key be set as a token. gh repo clone Github-Foundation-Learning/Github-Examples Creates a temp workspace There is a hidden folder called .git. The folder tells you that your project is .git repo.
Next step is to intialise the repo in the new folder.

gh apigh auth loginNB: You'll be prompted to choose an authentication method. GitHub CLI supports several authentication methods, including logging in via a web browser, using a personal access token, or using an SSH key. Follow the prompts to complete the authentication process based on your chosen method: If you choose to authenticate via a web browser, a browser window will open, and you'll be asked to sign in to your GitHub account. After signing in, you'll be prompted to grant access to the GitHub CLI application. If you choose to authenticate using a personal access token, you'll need to enter your GitHub username and personal access token when prompted. Once the authentication process is complete, gh will store your authentication credentials securely, and you'll be logged in to your GitHub account. After logging in, you can use the GitHub CLI (gh) to interact with GitHub from the command line, such as creating repositories, managing issues and pull requests, and more.

git resetWhen we want to commit code we can write 'git commit' which will open up the commit message edit code in the editor
A commit has a unique SAH-1 identifier Author Information Commit Message Time Stamp Parent Commit Snapshot
git commit
git commit --amend # modifies most recent
git commit -a -m "msg" # automatically stages all tracked modified files before a commit.
git commit # initial commit allows empty msg
git checkout 6111184yhr847y878948u77fd0f # checkout to a commit based on a SHA
git commit -a -m "msg" --author # Specify author of the commit
On local machine set the below:
git config --globa; core.editor emacsThe git config file is whats stores your global configurations for git eg: email, name, editor e.t.c
To view the contents of git config use the below:
git config --listSet username Set email
git config --global user.name "John Doe"
git config --global user.email [email protected]git log
git commit -m "msg"To push a a repo to out remote origin
git pushhttps://github.com/settings/token
PAT will be used as your password when you login. Will give you acess to

SSH requires that a key be set as a token.
```sh
git clone [email protected]:Github-Foundation-Learning/Github-Examples.git
cd Github-Examples/Ensure that you have an SSH key pair set up on your system and that the public key is added to your GitHub account. You can follow the instructions here to generate and add SSH keys:
https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account Verify SSH Configuration: Make sure that your SSH configuration is set up correctly. Check if your SSH config file (~/.ssh/config on Unix-like systems) has an entry for GitHub. It should look something like this:
Host github.com
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa # Path to your private keyssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"
