Tutorials about Github
Github is a site where you can host multiple Git repositories. It is particularly useful for open-source projects such as GEOS-Chem.
If you are going to be submitting code for inclusion into GEOS-Chem, we recommend that you set up your own Github account. You can then fork the GEOS-Chem repository (i.e. clone it directly to your Github account), modify it, and then create a pull request. More information can be found at our links below.
- An Intro to Git and Github for beginners (Hubspot)
- Creating a pull request (Github)
- Fork a repository (Github)
- Using the Fork-and-Branch Git Workflow (Scott's Weblog)
