Welcome to Mutual-Aid-Networks! This site is for organizing mutual aid efforts within your community.

Setup

1. The general development workflow is as follows:

• Fork the Mutual-Aid-Networks repo
• Make changes to your forked repo
• Send PRs from the forked repo to the main Mutual-Aid-Networks repo

2. Merging your changes to the main Mutual-Aid-Networks repo

A. update your forked master branch to match the main Mutual-Aid-Networks master branch:

• Set up the original Mutual-Aid-Networks admin repo as a remote (this only has to be done once): git remote add upstream https://github.com/townhallproject/mutual-aid-networks.git
  • To verify that the remote was added: git remote -v
• git checkout master
• git pull upstream master
  • this brings all new content from the main Mutual-Aid-Networks repo into the current branch of your cloned repo
• git push origin master
  • this sends those changes to your fork

B. Rebase your topic branch onto your fork's master, which is now up to date with everyone elses changes:

• git checkout <your branch>
• git rebase master
  • if there are any problems they will become apparent here
• git push origin master

C. Create a pull request to the main Mutual-Aid-Networks repo master

• use the github UI
