GitHub Pages Assignment

(10 pts) Assignment Instructions

Go slowly, follow the instructions carefully, and you'll be fine!

1. Create your own GitHub profile/ID (appropriate for job or grad school applications)

   • Create a new repo in your GitHub profile & initialize it with a "README"
   • note the url for the webpage of your new repo

2. Go to Dr. Beckman's GitHub-Practice-Fall2021 repo (that generated this page)

   • There's a "View on GitHub" button somewhere on this page, or you can just search GitHub for "mdbeckman" and find the repo
   • "Fork" Dr. Beckman's class repo to create your own copy to edit
   • Your copy of the repo should say "[your-userID] / GitHub-Practice-Fall2021" at the top with a tiny note saying it was forked from mdbeckman
   • Click on "README.md" >> Edit (pencil icon in upper right) to edit your copy of the repo

3. Add a row in your copy of the table below with your information

   • follow the pattern for the vertical bar character (a few keys to the right of "P")... using the "Matthew Beckman" row as a template
   • (2 pts) first & last name
   • (2 pts) class days/time
   • (2 pts) github id
   • (2 pts) url for GitHub repo you created from your new GitHub profile
   • (2 pts) commit your changes and submit pull request
     • write a descriptive commit message (e.g. "added Matt Beckman to class table")
     • click green button "Commit changes"

4. Merge your updated copy of the repo with Dr. Beckman's repo...

   • [top of page] >> click "Pull requests" >> click green button "New Pull Request"
   • GitHub will take you to MY (Dr. Beckman's) copy of the repo (mdbeckman / GitHub-Practice-Fall2021) at the top
   • Click the green button "Create pull request"
   • Describe the change again (e.g. "added Matt Beckman to class table")
   • Click the green button "Create pull request"
   • Job done!

5. (ungraded) pat yourself on the back!

Important: Your entry may NOT appear on the class table immediately. Once you submit the "pull request" the owner of the repo (me) needs to approve and merge it into the "master" before your entry will appear in the class table on the website.
