first-pr-hacktoberfest--2019's Introduction

first-pr-Hacktoberfest -2019

First Contributions

It’s not an easy task for a learner to implement things in the right way at one shot and difficult for learners to go in a correct path by following certain rules initially. Learners make mistakes and one learns from his/her mistake. So, we want to help the new-come learners to contribute to open source by making their first contribution. There is nothing more efficient way of learning new stuff than implementing it. As the saying goes “practise makes a man perfect”, the more we contribute to open source, the more we shall get used to its advantages. We shall, therefore, learn to contribute to the open-source GitHub by following the given steps below.

Fork this repository

Now, forking seems easy! Just click on right top fork button and get a copy of the repository in your account easily done.

Clone the repository

Next, to clone the forked repository just go your GitHub account, open the forked repository, them the copy to clipboard icon is pressed under the clone or download button in the forked repository. Open a terminal and run the following git command:

git clone "URL you copied"

where "URL you just copied" (without the quote marks) is the URL to this repository (your fork of this project).

Create a branch

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

cd first-pr-Hacktoberfest--2019

Now create a branch using the git checkout command:

git checkout -b <add-your-new-branch-name> write the branch name without brackets.

Make necessary changes and commit those changes

Go to freshers folder. In the contributor_list.md add your name and git account. Then move into json folder open the gitcommands.json file and write any git commad you understood and describe it in one line. After necessary changes are made save them and in terminal type git status. Now you need to add them. git add freshers cause the folder you edited is named as freshers. If you go to the project directory and execute the command git status, you'll see there are changes.

git commit -m "Briefly explain what you did"

Push changes to GitHub

Push your changes using the command git push:

git push origin <add-your-branch-name>

Replacing <add-your-branch-name> with the name of the branch you created earlier.

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. Now submit the pull request.

Where to go from here?

Congrats! You just completed the standard fork -> clone -> edit -> PR workflow that you'll encounter often as a contributor! Now its time to practice some more PR workflow using different repositories.

first-pr-hacktoberfest--2019's Issues

Pull requests here won’t count toward Hacktoberfest.

Hi there,

Thank you for your interest in Hacktoberfest and in helping others make their first contributions to open source.

While we agree that it's important to help others, this repository does not do this in a way that is in line with the Hacktoberfest values. Please read the part that talks about high-quality contributions to understand why we are reaching out and taking action. Due to this, we've added this repository to the list of excluded repositories which means pull requests here will not count toward Hacktoberfest 2020.

This is not a DigitalOcean decision, it's one that is inspired by the community of maintainers and contributors who all agree that quality is more important than quantity when it comes to engagement in the Open Source community. The values remind us to shift the focus from contributions to repositories that encourage folks to quickly create and gain a pull request to contributions that will help people level-up their skills and contribute to open-source projects that are in need of help.

If you feel that this repository is an effective learning resource, we encourage you to keep running it since a core part of the aim for Hacktoberfest is to encourage new folks to get involved with open-source.

However, if you are interested in having contributions to this repo count toward Hacktoberfest we encourage you to take a look at this list of Hacktoberfest issues for inspiration and make the necessary changes to focus on enabling people to make meaningful contributions to open source projects.

If you have any questions about this or participating in Hacktoberfest, please contact our team via email [email protected] or join our community Discord server.

Happy Hacking,
The Hacktoberfest Team

Hi there,

Thanks for your interest in Hacktoberfest and helping others learn how to make their first contributions to open source!

That said, high-quality contributions are part of the the core values of Hacktoberfest, so we kindly ask that you do not create repositories which allow users to quickly gain a PR toward completing the challenge.

We encourage you to take a look at our list of Hacktoberfest issues for inspiration and ideas about making meaningful contributions to open source projects.

Due to this, we've added this repository to our list of excluded repositories and pull requests here will not count toward Hacktoberfest 2019.

Please note, you are welcome to keep running this repository as a learning tool for new contributors to open-source, but pull requests won’t count toward Hacktoberfest.
