Assignment 3 Public Repository for CPS 622 at the Unviersity of Dayton.

Your assignment is to properly add a new joke to this repository! Sound simple enough, and it really is! If this is your first time using Git (and GitHub), you'll need to do the following:

• Create a GitHub account, and locally clone a repo
• Make local changes, and push them to a remote repository
• Merge your changes into a development branch.

The only code you need to write, is adding a new joke to the repository, by editing the source code. There are automated tests that will confirm that your changes didn't break functionality.

Steps

Here are the general steps you need to follow.... (Note: Your exact steps might vary slightly, but this should be the workflow for most of you)

• Create a GitHub account
• Clone this repo, either through SSH or with a GUI application.
  • This will probably be the hardest part for you, I would watch some tutorials.
  • You can create SSH keys, use a Personal Access Token with HTTPS, or use GUI apps through GitHub.
  • I'd recommend taking the time to learn this through the command line, with SSH.
• Create a new branch off of the development branch, either through the command line, or in the GitHub web tool.
• Commit your local changes to this new branch, and push it to the remote repo.
• Create a pull request into the development branch, with your changes on your branch.
• Make any edits myself, or the TA request in the pull request.

Grading

This assignment is basically a pass / fail grade. Making a joke isn't really the test (at least I hope not), its understanding the Git workflow, and being able to contrinute to a repo properly.
