Homework Three

I will pull your copies Friday at 5, and try to have comments for you by next class period, when we will discuss them.

Feel free to work in groups, and discuss the assignments as needed. However, I do expect you to turn in your own copy, with answers in your own words. Feel free to try the commands in the answers - you don’t have to do this from memory.

3. In your own words, what does the correct command in question two do?

4. In what order do we use the following commands: git push, git add, git commit? In your own words, what does this series of commands do?
