Day 60: More Github Basics

I started the day off with a Github course class called "Introduction to Merging."  When in the git log, type in "q" to exit it and go back to the command prompt.  These are  some github commands I learned:

git clone - create a new repository that is a clone of a remote repository.

git remote - list all remote repositories associated with the current repository 

git remote add - add a new remote repository to the current repository.

Actually, the correct word would be that I used these commands, I haven't really learned them yet.  I got up to the video on merging, and then I didn't feel like I was learning anything anymore.  I need to complete the badge on Merging, and after that, the next badge is on Git workflows, but since I feel like the instructor is going too fast, I'm simply going to go over all the Git videos again.  I need to make sure that I'm VERY comfortable with Git, as, if I end up working remotely, it will be a very important part of my job.

Nonetheless, I've moved forward in The Odin Project!  I'm now at 29% done on Web Development 101!  The next lesson is called "Javascript 101," and I'll get to work on it as soon as I review all my Git work on Treehouse and complete the last badge.  This should be done by tomorrow, as I'd really like to wrap up this Git Basics training and keep moving forward.
