Time	Narration
00:01	Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Hosting Git Repositories.
00:06	In this tutorial, we will learn about: * Git repository hosting services
00:11	* Creating a GitHub account
00:14	* Creating a repository in GitHub and * creating a tag in the repository.
00:20	To record this tutorial, I am using Ubuntu Linux 14.04 and Firefox web browser.
00:29	You can use any browser of your choice.
00:32	For this tutorial, you will need a working Internet connection.
00:37	You should also have basic knowledge of Git commands.
00:42	If not, for relevant Git tutorials, please visit the link shown.
00:47	First, let us learn about Git repository hosting services.
00:52	There are many web-based hosting services available such as Bitbucket, CloudForge and GitHub.
01:00	Here you can import your Git repositories free of cost.
01:05	They provide a centralized location to share your repository, so that many people can collaborate on a project easily.
01:14	They allow you to download and study others projects free of cost.
01:19	Next, we will see why to use GitHub.
01:23	GitHub has become the most popular website for housing Open Source Software.
01:28	In GitHub, you can view, discuss and review changes with your team effectively.
01:35	The procedure used in GitHub will be similar to other free Git hosting websites.
01:42	You can explore them yourself later.
01:45	Next, we will learn how to create an account in GitHub.
01:49	Open your web browser and go to www.github.com.
01:56	Here, in the homepage, you have to give your details for registration.
02:01	I will type: "priya-spoken" as user name and
02:07	"priyaspoken@gmail.com" as email-id.
02:11	Please type your preferred user name and valid email id.
02:16	Then, I will type my password.
02:19	You can give any password as per your choice.
02:23	Now, click on Sign up for GitHub button at the bottom right.
02:28	Next, in Step 2, we have to choose our plan.
02:32	I will choose Free plan as I want to use the free service.
02:37	Now, click on Finish sign up button.
02:40	Next, we will create a repository in GitHub.
02:44	You can see a button New repository in the right side box; click on it.
02:51	It shows a message “Please verify your email address”.
02:55	GitHub will send a verification mail to our registered email id.
02:59	So, we have to open our email account and click on the email which is sent by GitHub.
03:06	I have already signed-in to my email-id which is registered with GitHub.
03:11	Let me open it.
03:13	I have an email from GitHub.
03:16	Let me click on it.
03:18	The subject line says, “Please verify your email address”.
03:23	If the mail is not found in your Inbox, please check your Spam or Junk folders.
03:29	Now, click on Verify email address button.
03:32	We are redirected to the GitHub Homepage.
03:36	This indicates that we have successfully created our account in GitHub.
03:42	We will try to create a repository in GitHub.
03:45	Now, click on New repository button in the right side box.
03:50	You can see that now we are able to create repository.
03:54	Let us type: “stories” as Repository Name.
03:58	If you want to give any description about the repository, we can do so here.
04:04	Next, I will choose Public option, which is free of cost.
04:09	If we choose Private option, we have to pay some fees to keep our repository private.
04:16	This means that other users cannot find and download our repository.
04:21	Let me click on Public again.
04:24	Click on this checkbox, Initialize this repository with a README.
04:28	This will create a readme file.
04:31	In this file, you can write information about the usage of code or installation instructions.
04:37	It will be useful for all the collaborators.
04:42	However, if we are importing an existing repository, this box should be unchecked.
04:48	Now, click on Create repository button.
04:52	You can see the repository name along with your user name has been created successfully.
04:58	Once the repository is created, you can see the readme file label at the left bottom.
05:05	We will write some information in this file later.
05:09	By default, we can see a commit (i.e) Initial commit, one branch (i.e) master branch and one contributor.
05:18	You can click on each link and explore them at your convenience.
05:23	Now, let us start working in this repository.
05:27	We will begin by adding a file to our repository.
05:31	Click on New file button, in the middle panel.
05:34	A new form opens up for creating a file.
05:38	Here, I will give the file name as "kids-story.html".
05:44	I will copy and paste some code into this file, from my Writer document, which I had saved earlier.
05:51	Likewise, you can add some content into your file.
05:55	Let's commit this new file now.
05:58	Scroll down the page to give the commit message.
06:01	Here, in the commit message field, you can see the default message "Create kids-story.html".
06:09	You can keep the default message or type a new message.
06:13	I will keep the default message.
06:16	Here, in the next field, you can also give an extended description of the commit.
06:22	So here, I will type: "Added first file of the repository".
06:27	By default, we commit to the master branch.
06:31	Now click on Commit new file button.
06:34	Our new file kids-story.html is added to the repository.
06:39	Notice that now the commit number is increased to two.
06:43	Let’s click on it.
06:45	Here, you can see three dots next to the commit message.
06:49	Let me click on it.
06:51	It shows the description of the commit.
06:54	To know what we have done in the commit, click on that particular commit message.
07:00	Now you can see the details of the commit.
07:03	Let’s go back to the commit list.
07:06	For this, click on the left arrow button at the top left corner of the browser.
07:11	On the right side, you can see the hash value of the commit.
07:15	Click on Code tab, at the top left corner, to come back to the repository.
07:21	Next, let me demonstrate how to create a new branch in GitHub.
07:26	In the left side, you can see a drop-down list labeled Branch.
07:31	Click on it to create a new branch.
07:34	You can see a pop-up window opens up.
07:38	In the pop-up window, you can see Find or create a branch field.
07:43	I will type: "new-chapter" as the new branch name and press Enter.
07:49	You can see that the new-chapter branch is created and it is our current branch.
07:55	Next, we will make a commit in the new-chapter branch to understand the branching process better.
08:02	Let’s make some changes in kids-story.html file for demonstration purpose.
08:09	In the repository, click on kids-story.html file to open it.
08:14	At the top right corner of the editor panel, you can see an edit icon.
08:19	Click on it to edit this file.
08:22	I will add some lines here which I have copied from my Writer document.
08:27	You can do so likewise.
08:30	Now, we will commit this change.
08:33	I will keep the default commit message as it is.
08:37	Here, you can see the branch name new-chapter where this commit was made.
08:43	To commit, click on Commit changes button.
08:46	Let’s click on Code tab to go back to our repository.
08:50	Next, let’s check the commits of master and new-chapter branches.
08:56	Click on commits link.
08:59	Here, in the Branch drop down, we can select the branch name that we want to see.
09:04	I will select master branch in the list.
09:08	Once it is selected, the commits of the master branch will be listed.
09:13	To see the commits of new-chapter branch, we will select new-chapter in the Branch drop down.
09:19	Now, you can see the commits of new-chapter branch.
09:24	Let’s click on Code tab to go back to our repository.
09:28	Next, let us see how to create a tag in GitHub.
09:32	We already know that tagging is used to mark a commit stage as important.
09:38	For example, say, I want to create a tag in the master branch after adding kids-story.html file.
09:46	To create a tag, first click on releases link.
09:50	Click on Create a new release button.
09:54	A new form opens up.
09:56	In the Tag Version box, type "V1.0".
10:01	In the Release title box, type: "Version one".
10:05	In the Write box, we can give the description of our tag.
10:10	I will type: “This is the version one”.
10:13	Now, click on Publish release button.
10:18	Here, on the left side, you can see the hash value of the latest commit.
10:24	We already know that by default, the tag will be created in the latest commit.
10:30	With this, we come to the end of this tutorial.
10:33	Let us summarize.
10:35	In this tutorial, we have learnt about:
10:38	* Importance of online Git hosting services
