Clone a GitHub Repository
Cloning makes a copy of a GitHub repository locally on your computer. These instructions are for cloning an existing repository. If you are starting a new project, you will need to Create a New Repository.
- On GitHub, go to the repository you want to clone (e.g., github.com/PCLLAB/RepositoryName).
- Click the "Clone or download" button on the right side of the screen. Then click "Open in Desktop". This will launch the GitHub app.
- Click "Clone" to save the repository in your "htdocs" folder.
- In the GitHub app, there is a "Sync" button in the top right. Clicking Sync pulls the most recent code from GitHub and pushes any changes you have made locally.
