You can find my version of the project on GitHub.

Installations

If you haven’t been following along, you can get caught up by doing the following:

(windows) Install the Ubuntu Linux BASH shell for Windows 10

(mac) Install homebrew and wget

  /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
  brew install wget

To get to where we are at the beginning of this episode (you won’t have the same issue numbers at Pat)…
- Set up a GitHub account
- Create a new GitHub repository
  - Call it “Schloss_rrnAnalysis_XXXX_2020” (feel free to use your own last name)
  - Make it Public
  - Don’t check the box next to “Initialize this repository with a README”
  - Click the green “Create repository” button
- Go to your command line and enter the following replacing <your_github_id> with your GitHub user id
```
git clone git@github.com:SchlossLab/Schloss_rrnAnalysis_mSphere_2020.git
cd Schloss_rrnAnalysis_XXXX_2020
git reset --hard c91c957dd359c828014dc6006aad303a820657e2
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:<your_github_id>/Schloss_rrnAnalysis_XXXX_2020.git
git push -u origin master
```
- Return to GitHub and refresh your browser. Then you’ll be good to go.
