Scroll down to the bottom of this page and look at the image of the directories and files. Use commands in your terminal to create the directories and files structured exactly how they appear in the image.
When you're done, type history to see your commands. Copy and paste the commands that were used to create the directory and files:
359 pwd
360 mkdir session_3_practice
361 cd session_3_practice
362 pwd
363 mkdir notes
364 mkdir practice
365 cd practice
366 pwd
367 mkdir projects
368 cd ..
369 pwd
370 touch budget.csv
371 touch mentors.txt
372 ls
373 cd notes
374 pwd
375 touch git_notes.txt
376 touch command_line_notes.txt
377 ls
378 cd ..
379 cd practice
380 touch git_practice.txt

Since this is just a practice directory, feel free to remove the parent directory session_3_practice when you're done with this exercise.
You can reference the files/directories portion of the lesson here.
Follow the steps below to practice the git workflow. Be ready to copy-paste your terminal output as confirmation of your practice.
- Create a directory called
git_homework. Inside of there, create a file calledquotes.txt. - Initialize the directory
- Check the git status
- Add your
quotes.txtfile to the staging area - Check the git status
- Create an initial commit
- Check the status
- Add your favorite quote to the
quotes.txtfile - Check the status
- Check the diff
- Add the changes to the staging area
- Commit the new changes
- Check the status
- Show the log in oneline (yes,
oneline, not a spelling error) format
Copy and paste all of the terminal text from this process below (not just the history):

If you have any questions, comments, or confusions that you would an instructor to address, list them below:
-
If time permits and you want extra git practice and alternative explanations (it's often beneficial to have something explained in many different ways), check out Codecademy's Git Course, particularly the first free item on the syllabus, "Basic Git Workflow". In Mod 0, we will not cover anything beyond Codecademy's intro section; however, you are welcome to check out the other git lessons listed on the syllabus if you want a head start.
-
This course is how I personally learned command line. If time permits, I highly recommend reading and practicing.
-
Also recommended by Jeff Casimir: Michael Hartl's Learn Enough Command Line.
-
Add tab completion to make your life easier: Type Less. Do More.
