Question

I am currently collaborating with a few others on a large Java project, and have cloned the repository to work on it from my home PC. I went ahead and changed 2 files within the whole directory/subdirectory structure of this gigantic project, and would like to just push those two files I’ve edited back into the repository.

Is there a command I can use in order to accomplish this? Thanks.

Answer 1

git pull origin master – make sure your master branch is up to date with the latest changes in the remote repository defined by origin (frequently github).

git status – show files that you’ve modified in the branch you are in.

git add . – add the files you’ve modified to your current branch.

git commit – save changed files to your current branch.

git push origin master – send the changed files in the master branch to the remote repository.
