First Contributions

This project aims to simplify and guide the way beginners make their first contribution. If you are looking to make your first contribution, follow the steps below.

If you're not comfortable with command line, here are tutorials using GUI tools.

fork this repository

If you don't have git on your machine, install it.

Fork this repository

Fork this repository by clicking on the fork button on the top of this page. This will create a copy of this repository in your account.

Clone the repository

clone this repository

Now clone the forked repository to your machine. Go to your GitHub account, open the forked repository, click on the code button and then click the copy to clipboard icon.

Open a terminal and run the following git command:

git clone "url you just copied"

where "url you just copied" (without the quotation marks) is the url to this repository (your fork of this project). See the previous steps to obtain the url.

copy URL to clipboard

For example:

git clone git@github.com:this-is-you/first-contributions.git

where

this-is-you
is your GitHub username. Here you're copying the contents of the first-contributions repository on GitHub to your computer.

Create a branch

Change to the repository directory on your computer (if you are not already there):

cd first-contributions

Now create a branch using the

git switch
command:

git switch -c your-new-branch-name

For example:

git switch -c add-alonzo-church
If you get any errors using git switch, click here:

If the error message "Git: ‘switch’ is not a git command. See ‘git –help’" appears, it's likely because you're using an older version of git.

In this case, try to use

git checkout
instead:

git checkout -b your-new-branch-name

Make necessary changes and commit those changes

Now open

Contributors.md
file in a text editor, add your name to it. Don't add it at the beginning or end of the file. Put it anywhere in between. Now, save the file.

git status

If you go to the project directory and execute the command

git status
, you'll see there are changes.

Add those changes to the branch you just created using the

git add
command:

git add Contributors.md

Now commit those changes using the

git commit
command:

git commit -m "Add your-name to Contributors list"

replacing

your-name
with your name.

Push changes to GitHub

Push your changes using the command

git push
:

git push -u origin your-branch-name

replacing

your-branch-name
with the name of the branch you created earlier.

If you get any errors while pushing, click here:
  • Authentication Error

    remote: Support for password authentication was removed on August 13, 2021. Please use a personal access token instead.
    remote: Please see https://github.blog/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations/ for more information.
    fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://github.com//first-contributions.git/'

    Go to GitHub's tutorial on generating and configuring an SSH key to your account.

    Also, you might want to run 'git remote -v' to check your remote address.

    If it looks anything like this:

    origin	https://github.com/your-username/your_repo.git (fetch)
    origin	https://github.com/your-username/your_repo.git (push)

    change it using this command:

    git remote set-url origin git@github.com:your-username/your_repo.git

    Otherwise you'll still get prompted for username and password and get authentication error.

Submit your changes for review

If you go to your repository on GitHub, you'll see a

Compare & pull request
button. Click on that button.

create a pull request

Now submit the pull request.

submit pull request

Soon I'll be merging all your changes into the main branch of this project. You will get a notification email once the changes have been merged.
