Create local copy of the repository
To view the code or work on it on your local machine you create a copy of the repository from GitHub ideally by cloning it with Git. This way you ensure that you are always able to easily integrate the latest upstream changes.
The following commands assume you already have Git installed. In case you do not have Git installed go here and return after finishing the appropriate installation for your platform.
To clone the repository locally, you go to any folder on your machine (i.e. ~/your/local/folder/
) and execute
$ git clone https://github.com/Met4FoF/Code Met4FoF_Code
where Met4FoF_Code
in the command stands for the folder you want the repository to go into. This folder does not need to exist before you execute the command. It will be created as a subfolder and your local repository will be created inside of that subfolder. If you do not specify a folder, the repository will be cloned to the subfolder Code
, which is the repository's name.
