Explanation
This is pretty vague but I'll bởi what I can lớn help.
First, while it may seem daunting at first, I suggest you learn how lớn bởi things from the command line (called terminal on OSX). This is a great way lớn make sure you're putting things where you really want lớn.
You should definitely google 'unix commands' lớn learn more, but here are a few important commands lớn help in this situation:
ls
- list all files and directories (folders) in current directory
cd
- change directory, or change the thư mục you're looking in
mkdir
- Makes a new directory (be careful, you will have lớn cd into the directory after you make it)
rm -r
- Removes a directory and everything inside it
git clone
- Clones the repository into the directory you are currently browsing.
Answer
So, on my computer, I would run rẩy the following commands lớn create a directory (folder) called projects within my documents thư mục and clone a repo there.
- Open terminal
cd documents
(Not case sensitive on mac)mkdir projects
cd projects
git clone https://github.com/seanbecker15/wherecanifindit.git
cd wherecanifindit
(if I want lớn go into the directory)
p.s. wherecanifindit is just the name of my git repository, not a command!
