Subsection 0.2.2 Cloning the ALAFF repository

We have placed all materials on GitHub, a development environment for software projects. In our case, we use it to disseminate the various activities associated with this course.

On the computer on which you have chosen to work, "clone" the GitHub repository for this course:

Visit https://github.com/ULAFF/ALAFF
Click on
and copy https://github.com/ULAFF/ALAFF.git.
On the computer where you intend to work, in a terminal session on the command line in the directory where you would like to place the materials, execute
```
git clone https://github.com/ULAFF/ALAFF.git
```
This will create a local copy (clone) of the materials.
Sometimes we will update some of the files from the repository. When this happens you will want to execute, in the cloned directory,
```
git stash save
```
which saves any local changes you have made, followed by
```
git pull
```
which updates your local copy of the repository, followed by
```
git stash pop
```
which restores local changes you made. This last step may require you to "merge" files that were changed in the repository that conflict with local changes.

Upon completion of the cloning, you will have a directory structure similar to that given in Figure 0.2.2.0.1.
