Problem (2) Solution: Create a Git working directory, with the following branches:

● Develop

● F1

● f2

Step 1: Now, we will create the three branches such as “Develop”, “F1” & “F2”.

Use the below-given commands:

git branch Develop
git branch F1
git branch F2

Now, we will run the below-given command to determine how many branches are created.

git branch

All the Branches Created

All the branches (Develop, F1, F2) will be successfully created.

In starting, we have created a separate directory “assignment3” to perform this assignment.

Problem (3) Solution: Put develop.txt in the develop branch, f1.txt, and f2.txt in f1 and f2 respectively

Step 1: Switch to the “Develop” branch using the below-given command:

git checkout Develop

Go to the “develop” branch

You will be successfully switched to the “Develop” branch.

Step 2: Create a “develop.txt” file using the command:

touch develop.txt

Check the file creation using the below-given command:

git status

Go to the “develop” branch & check the status

It will ask to add this file. Now, we will perform the stage & commit to the “develop.txt” file in the “Develop” branch.

Step 3: Use the below-given command to stage the “develop.txt” file:

git add develop.txt

Stage the “develop.txt” file

Step 4: Use this command to commit the “develop.txt” file:

Step 5: Switch to the “F1” branch using the below-given command:

git checkout F1

Switch to the “F1” Branch

You will be successfully switched to the “F1” branch.

Step 6: Create an “f1.txt” file using the below-given command:

touch f1.txt

Check the file creation using the below-given command:

git status

Create & Check f1.txt File Status

It will ask to add this file. Now, we will perform the stage & commit to the “f1.txt” file in the “F1” branch.

Step 7: Use the below-given command to stage the “f1.txt” file:

git add f1.txt

Stage the “f1.txt” file

Step 8: Use the below-given command to commit the “f1.txt” file:

git commit –m "committing f1.txt file"

Committing the “f1.txt” file

Step 9: Switch to the “F2” branch using the below-given command:

git checkout F2

Switch to the “F2” Branch

You will be successfully switched to the “F2” branch.

Step 10: Create an “f2.txt” file using the below-given command:

touch f2.txt

Check the file creation using the below-given command:

git status

Create the f2.txt file

It will ask to add this file. Now, we will perform the stage & commit to the “f2.txt” file in the “F2” branch.

Step 11: Use the below-given command to stage the “f2.txt” file:

git add f2.txt

Stage the “f2.txt” file

Step 12: Use the below-given command to commit the “f2.txt” file:

git commit –"committing f2.txt file"

Committing the f2.txt file

Problem (4) Solution: Push all these branches to GitHub

Now, we will push all the branches to the repository (Git-Assignment-3)

Step 1: Now, use the below-given command to push the branches in “GitHub Repository”:

git push Git-Assignment-3 Develop F1 F2

Push the Branches

All the branches will be successfully pushed to “Git Hub repository (Git-Assignment-3).

Step 2: Go to “Github account” & also, you will notice the message that “Develop”, “F1” & “F2” have recent pushes available.

All Branched Pushed Successfully

Step 3: Refresh the repository (Git-Assignment-3) & all the branches will be shown successfully.

Branches Shown in Remote Repository

Problem (5) Solution: On local delete the f2 branch

Step 1: First, go to the master branch using the below-given command:

git checkout master

Switch to the master branch

You will be successfully moved to the “master” branch.

Step 2: Now, we will delete the “F2” branch from the remote using the below-given command:

git branch –D F2

Delete the F2 Branch from the Local Repository

The “F2” branch will be successfully deleted.

Step 3: Run the below-given command to check out how many branches are available:

  git branch

All branches are shown here

The “F2” branch will not be shown here now.

Problem (6) Solution: Delete the same branch on GitHub as well

Step 1: Now, we will delete the branch from the “local” using the command:

git push Git-Assignment-3 --delete F2

Delete the F2 Branch

The “F2” branch will be successfully deleted from the repository also.

Step 2: Go to “GitHub Repository” & refresh the browser. Click on “master” & “F2” branches will not be shown here.

Delete the F2 from the Remote Repository
