Is There a Place for me Here?

i think you should have extension for that.

you dont have to invite anyone. it’s public, but no1 can change anything unless you allow it. for example if i want to change something in your repo, I have to fork it, make changes in my repo, then send those changes to your repo. then you decide will you accept them and merge, or not.

Thanks, diomed!

You’re helping this old dog learn new tricks. :poodle:

Could I get someone to check to see if I have put something in my GitHub repo, RHH42?

$ echo "# the-clan" >> README.md
git init
git add README.md
git commit -m "first commit"
git branch -M main
git remote add origin https://github.com/RHH42/the-clan.git
git push -u origin main

That’s what I see in GIT Bash

no. you didnt do anything today, as it seems.

OK. How about now? I should have 3 files: ReadMe, sytles.css, and index.html. At least when I log in to my git hub account, it shows these files.

Can anyone else see them in my GitHub repo?

Why can’t I see commit comments in GitHub? Is there any way to check them and change them if need be?

That looks like a private repository no one else can see it.

you need to unlock it

I don’t know how I managed to do it, but it seems like I created multiple repos in github.


One of them is public, but I’d like to change the name of the repo and get rid of the others. I’d like to keep the name RHH42/the-clan as it is the title for my web site. It is not (yet ) public nor does it contain the files. RHH42/styles.css is public and contains my files but has a name I’d prefer to change.

Can someone, please, point me in the right direction?

Follow-up to my last post.

With the help of searches, I found how to delete the repos I had unintentionally created, rename my repo, AND make it public.

Would someone please confirm that they can ‘see’ its contents and confirm for me what the file names are?

TIA

I see one repo called the the clan

but also, you can see which repos are public by the label next to them

Hello and glad to have you here!

Admitedly i haven’t scrolled through the entire conversation (shame on me :saluting_face: ) but seeing that you are here to get some tasks done, i would strongly recommend to use GPT4 from OpenAI. If the task is not overly complicated, it will probably get the job done well enough: https://chat.openai.com/

For example, GPT4 successfully guided me in synchronizing project files from my local machine to my Github Repo. For the most part i had no idea what he was doing, and it was a back and forth thing where some things he told me to do weren’t working, but we troubleshooted it together and in the end voila, it worked! And i did that with zero knowledge on my part.

My point is, consider also using him as a tool - GPT4 - the premium version. It is also an excellent tool for learning and explaining coding, a really good tutor.

Best of luck and sorry if i am offtopic! :kissing_closed_eyes:

Hey, your making me feel stupid :sweat_smile:…I don’t even know what text files are :face_with_peeking_eye:. Its great that your making a family history website, I love the idea :grinning:! Welcome to the community :smiley:!

Be careful with this. ChatGPT can be wildly incorrect at times. You will need to almost double check anything it gives to make sure it is actually correct or not
