, where is your github user id.The entire command will look like this:
$ git clone https://github.com/<your username>/GPHY-491-591
Note: In the line above, the
$
is your terminal prompt. On other systems, the command prompt is something like>
, or[username]$
. To keep these directions more general, I will just use$
to represent the command prompt throughout our docs. The key point is that you don't need to type this as part of the command. -
Press Enter. A local clone of the class repository will be created on your local computer.
$ git clone https://github.com/<your username>/GPHY-491-591 Cloning into 'GPHY-491-591'...

You will now have a new local directory in your instance called `GPHY-491-591/`, which contains all of the course materials. We will download and practice using all of the required software to use these course materials on Day 0 of the course.
