Scroll down for more info.\n\n## Prerequisites\n### 1. Install Git on your computer.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/git.png\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\nFirstly, install Git onto your local system. If you are on linux or mac, you get Git pre-installed.\\\nHowever, if you are on Windows you will have to install it. To do so, click [here](https://git-scm.com/).\n\n### 2. Creating a GitHub account.\n\nHead over to [GitHub.com](https://github.com) and create an account by signing up.\n\n### 3. Now what?\n\nOpen sourcing and contributing to the free internet is what drives the internet today, and everyone and every single contribution is appreciated in the Open Source world.\\\nAnd, you can join us with your first pull request right here!\n\n## First pull request to Glory\n### 1. Star and Fork this Repository\nYou can star and fork this repository on GitHub at the top of the repository.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/star-and-fork.PNG\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\nForking allows you to create a version of the repository for yourself.\\\nThis allows you to make changes to the repository without requiring any permissions or interfering with the existing repository.\\\nNow, redirect yourself to your fork of the repository, which should have a URL like so,\n\u003e https://github.com/your-github-username/OpenSource101\n\n### 2. Clone the repository to your local computer\nTo make your own copy of the repository that you would want to contribute to, you'll need to clone it to your system for easier access.\nUsing the `git clone` commmand, you could clone the repository to your local system.\nWhile the URL would essentially be like,\n\u003e https://github.com/your-username/OpenSource101.git\n\nIt's easier to just click on the clone icon and copy it to your clipboard.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/clone-git-url.PNG\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\nAfter which, just direct yourself to whichever place you wish to clone the repository to using the change directory or `cd` command in terminal and then `git clone` your project.\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/cloning-cmd.PNG\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n### 3. Create a New Branch\n\nDirect yourself into the repository using `cd OpenSource101/`.\nNow, we'll create and switch onto the branch that we will be working on, for editing file in the project.\n\nCreating a branch,\n```git\ngit branch branch-name\n```\n\nSwitching from main branch to another branch,\n```git\ngit checkout branch-name\n```\n\nViewing all the available branches for your repository,\n```git\ngit branch -a\n```\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/switch-branch.PNG\" width=\"600px\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n### 4. Contribute!\n\nTo help make contribution easy, we have made a fixed template for you to work on. Follow the steps provided below.\n\nWe can finally get to contributing to the repository now!\\\nNow that you've switched over to another branch, change your directory to `contributors` using `cd contributors`.\n\nCreate a file with your github username with a `.json` extension.\\\nExample : *GITHUB-USERNAME.json* , where GITHUB-USERNAME is your current GitHub username.\n\nThe contents of the JSON file in the below format,\n```json\n{\n    \"github-username\": \"YOUR-GITHUB-USERNAME\",\n    \"favourite-game\": \"YOUR-FAVOURITE-GAME\",\n    \"favourite-language\": \"YOUR-FAVOURITE-PROGRAMMING-LANGUAGE\",\n    \"favourite-color\": \"#FFFFFF\"\n}\n```\n\n```\n\"github-username\" should be the same one as the one you're making the pull request from.\n\n\"favourite-game\" can be any game that you really like.\n\n\"favourite-language\" has to be your favourite programming language or any programming language that you really want to learn.\n\n\"favourite-color\" can be any color in hex format (example: #FFF44F). You can pick any color from Google's color picker.\n```\n\n**Note** : Make sure your contributions are in line with our [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/Open-Source-Community-VIT-AP/OpenSource101/blob/main/.github/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md).\n\n### 5. Committing the changes\n\nYou can add all the files that you've updated using the command `git add -A`\\\nThen, you commit to save the files, like how you would at a checkpoint, `git commit -m \"added myself\"`\n\nNow, you want to push to your fork online, that works with `git push origin branch-name`.\n\n### 6. Updating the local repository\n\nIt is important to keep your local repository updated with the project in order to avoid merge conflicts. To do this, you'll have to configure a remote for the fork and then sync the fork.\n\n#### Configuring a Remote for the fork\n\nIn order to create a remote for the fork, you'll need to specify a new remote upstream repoistory (the repository you forked from) to sync with the fork. You'll be using the `git remote add` command to do that.\n\n\u003cpre\u003egit remote add upstream https://github.com/Open-Source-Community-VIT-AP/OpenSource101.git\u003c/pre\u003e\n\n**Note**: We have referenced the original repository as \"upstream\".\n\n#### Syncing the fork\n\nOnce the remote references to the original repository you forked from, you are ready to sync changes in order to keep your local copy up to date. To do this, we use the `git fetch` command.\n\n\u003cpre\u003egit fetch upstream\u003c/pre\u003e\n\nOnce done, you need to switch back to the main branch, you can do this using\n\n\u003cpre\u003egit checkout main\u003c/pre\u003e\n\nNow, merge changes made from the original repository's main branch with your current local ,main branch using\n\n\u003cpre\u003egit merge upstream/main\u003c/pre\u003e\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/repo-syncing.PNG\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n### 7. Making the pull request\n\nOnce your local repository is updated, you are all set to send us a pull request.\n\nTo do that, just open your forked repository and click on pull request, now you can see a green button that says \"New pull request\".\n\nCreate the pull request and lay back and relax until you receive a notice signifying the acceptance of your pull request or, the request to modify your changes.\n\n**Note** : If you have any question regarding any of the steps above or about anything related to this repository, just create an issue.\n\n## Open Source and it's wonders\n\nNow, that you've made your first pull request, it's time to explore the vast Open Source network, filled with projects that have ground-breaking potential.\\\nProjects that can revolutionalize the way we look at things.\\\nAs well as create your own for other people to appreciate and contribute to!\n\n# *Get, Set, Contribute!*\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n    \u003cimg src=\"assets/footercredits.png\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n","funding_links":[],"categories":["Hands on!"],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fosc-vitap%2FOpenSource101","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fosc-vitap%2FOpenSource101","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fosc-vitap%2FOpenSource101/lists"}
