@robertogcalle Thank you for posting that here. I'll pass this along as well, and hopefully something will be sorted out soon.

Hello @aungkhanthtoo! I took a look at your repository, and it looks like you've been following the directions. I'm going to pass this on to our engineering team to see if they can figure out what's going on. In the meantime, do you mind trying to re-open [issue #2](https://github.com/aungkhanthtoo/github-slideshow/issues/2), and create one more branch while the issue is open? Let me know how it goes!

Hi @ironmonkeeeee! I left this comment in your pull request, too, in case you see that first. I think what the course is looking for here is for you to keep this file, but to edit line 15 and change the theme within this file. It looks like you've tried to do that by commenting on the pull request, but changing the file is something different. Please let me know if you still aren't sure what to do. 😄

Hello @RoxHub! You can still edit the file. Make sure that you're on your own branch, and view the file. If you click the small pencil on the right hand side, you can edit the file again and make a new commit. This should put you on track to keep working. Let me know if you need more help, and good luck.

@RoelofWobben In the meantime, could you try going to this URL and logging out, then logging back in, to see if it fixes it? https://lab.github.com/logout

Yes, thank you for your patience @RoelofWobben. I've been unable to delete your account, but I've contacted an engineer on our team who will have it sorted out shortly. I'll be sure to update here once I know more.

Hello @RoelofWobben! I am not sure why this issue is happening. It does look like you have a repository from Learning Lab already on your account, but I can't see it. That means you either deleted it, or it's private. I can delete your user account from Learning Lab, which would have you re-register. This shouldn't delete your repositories if you still have them, but it will un-register you from the courses you've started. Is this OK?

brianamarie · ‎06-13-2018

Hm, I see how that would be very confusing. Unfortunately, I don't use the Git GUI on a regular basis, so I'm not sure exactly what could cause your local repository to roll back to a previous version. I'm sorry I can't answer how, because I know it would be ideal to recognize what caused this so it can be avoided in the future. For your current repository, to make sure you haven't lost any work, have you been able to get the changes back to your local environment from your remote?

Hi @Arunima93! Yes, I can help you here. There are a few ways to get a document into a repository on GitHub. Many of these include working on the command line, and using commands like: git clone git status git add git commit git push git pull However, if you'd like to avoid the command line, you can also upload files directly to a repository. This blog post is a great place to start. Please let me know if this doesn't answer your question, and I'm happy to try again.

brianamarie · ‎05-31-2018

Thank you for pointing this out, and providing a solution! I'll submit an improvement to these instructions.

brianamarie · ‎05-31-2018

Hello Edward from Canada! Greetings from Briana in Germany. Thank you for taking the time to post this. I think you're right, the current explanation isn't clear, and it's difficult to tell exactly what you're supposed to edit. I'm going to start working on a fix now. Unfortunately we don't have control over how the themes are named, but we can definitely try to make it more clear in the instructions.

brianamarie · ‎05-21-2018

Hi @darayanimusa! I'm afraid I'm not quite sure of your question. Can you please provide more information about what you need help with so other community members can better assist? Thanks!

Hi @El-Poyo-Loco! Are you referring to these cheat sheets? If so, they are available in many spoken languages and will work with your code no matter what programming language it's written in. Is that what you're asking?

brianamarie · ‎04-17-2018

Hi @pm-rocks! Very good question. Yes, it can be confusing when the word "project" is used to define a repository. A repository can represent an application, a website, or other groupings of relevant content. Sometimes, those applications or websites can also be casually referred to as a project. The "Projects" tab within a repository means something different. A project board helps you organize your work within a repository or organization. A project board can be owned by a repository or an organization, and an organization or repository can have many project boards. GitHub's documentation on Project Boards might help clear this up further if you're interested.

Hello @Html-superfan! No, you do not need to make a new pull request for every commit. A pull request is a comparison between two branches. If you make more commits on either of the branches, they will be included in the pull request. If you start working on a branch and open a pull request, but then decide you need or want to make more changes, you can continue to commit to the branch in the pull request. The pull request will update.

Hi @quinnlovescode! @quinnlovescode wrote: a re the repositories that are created for each course real repositories, or do they have limited functionality just to serve the purpose of the course? The repositories created for each course are real repositories. You will be able to interact with the repositories just like any other repository. @quinnlovescode wrote: Can other GitHub users see my GitHub Learning Lab repositories? This depends on the settings you chose when you started a course. If you created a public repository, then yes, other users will be able to see the repository. If you chose a private repository, then only people who you invite will be able to see it.

Hi @ghfan! Yes, the commits in a course definitely count towards your contribution graph. You can read more here about what counts as a contribution. Happy committing!

brianamarie · ‎04-02-2018

Hello @atarithelarge! A GitHub user account is necessary to take any of the courses. I think the Introduction to GitHub course is a great start for any beginner, so hopefully your friend doesn't mind the step of creating an account. The good news is that since it will be on their own account, they'll be able to keep working in the repositories for practice. All of the history will stay there and they can even review it if they need some extra practice.

Hi @jubimk4! I'm not sure I have an answer, but I might be able to help. Is the "cleartext" file a submodule?

brianamarie · ‎03-28-2018

Hi @swahocho. Are you looking for this documentation? When starting a new repository, it can be kind of confusing if you should start on the remote (GitHub.com) or locally (with git init). I recommend creating a repository on GitHub.com, then cloning to your local environment, and committing files to the repository and pushing back to the remote.

brianamarie · ‎03-28-2018

Hi @gitbaby2018! If you've committed the changes locally, then done a pull from the remote repository, your committed work should still be there. It won't be the most recent local commits, but they should be somewhere. If you push, your changes will then be pushed to the remote. However, if you aren't seeing your changes anymore, I'd be worried about if you hadn't actually fully committed the changes before pulling. If you push, are you able to see your changes on the remote?
