To begin building in our Bootstrap 5 code base, follow these steps:

  1. Create a repo for your project as usual on Github, then enter the following commands via Terminal/iTerm
  2. git clone git@github.com:Banno/webdev_custom.git --branch bootstrap5 (NEW_REPO_NAME) && cd $_
  3. git remote set-url origin (NEW_REPO_NAME.git)
  4. git branch -M main
  5. Delete git ignore, rename gitignore—rename
  6. git rm -r --cached .
  7. git add .
  8. git commit -m "Initial Commit"
  9. git push origin main -u

Please note, these instructions were written prior to the Bootstrap 5 branch being merged into master on our custom_webdev repo. Once this has been merged, the process will change slightly.

On step 2 above, it would change to: git clone git@github.com:Banno/webdev_custom.git --branch master (NEW_REPO_NAME) && cd $_

If our master branch is renamed to main, then that would change in the line above, too.
