Question
This exercise says we’re turning sorcerers-code into a Git project – what does this mean?
Answer
sorcerers-code
is an existing directory with some files already in it, so it’s already a project of sorts. But! It’s not yet a Git project – better known as a Git repository, or repo.
When you use git init
and initialize a repo, you’re officially making a Git project and can now make use of all the git commands in the world! If you’re not inside of a git repo, you won’t be able to use git commands and the terminal will complain to you about it.
