Command Line basic commands

Start working on your project

  • In Git, when you copy a project you say you "clone" it. To work on a git project locally (from your own computer), you will need to clone it. To do this, start by signing in at GitLab.com.. To do it, go to your gitlab.com account

  • When you are on your Dashboard, click on the project that you'd like to clone, which you'll find at the right side of your screen

Select a project

  • To work in the project, you can copy a link to the Git repository through a SSH or a HTTPS protocol. SSH is easier to use after it's been setup. When you're in the project, click on the HTTPS or SSH button at the right side of your screen. Then copy the link (you'll have to paste it on your shell in the next step)

Copy the HTTPS

On the command line

  • To clone your project, go to your computer's shell and type the following command
git clone PASTE HTTPS HERE
  • A clone of the project will be created in your computer
