By the end of this exercise, you'll have created, navigated, and understood the essence of branches in GitHub, setting a solid foundation for parallel development and experimentation without disrupting the main codebase. +**Objective**: Get a hands-on introduction to various GitHub features such as profile customization, forking, and pull requests. By the end of this exercise, you'll have a personalized GitHub profile, a forked repository, and experience collaborating on a project. ### Instructions: -1. **Understanding Branches**: Before making one, it's crucial to grasp the concept. A branch in Git is essentially a unique set of code changes with a unique name. It represents an independent line of development, allowing you to work on multiple features or fixes simultaneously without them affecting each other. +1. **Craft Your GitHub Identity**: + - Visit the [GitHub guide](https://docs.github.com/en/account-and-profile/setting-up-and-managing-your-github-profile/customizing-your-profile/managing-your-profile-readme). + - Create a `README.md` to personalize your profile. + +2. **Make Your Copy**: + - Navigate to the [forking instructions](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo#forking-a-repository). + - Fork our [project repository](https://github.com/grundkurs-git/.github), creating your personal copy + - Use "grundkurs-git" as name + +3. **Roster Update**: + - Within your forked repository, find the **Participants HS23** list. + - Add a link to your GitHub profile. + +
