Setting up a remote repository on github

See the instructions at:

• Dev:Git for developers
• Git repositories for contrib modules

Cloning the remote github repository to your local Moodle installation

1. Change to the parent folder for your plug-in
2. Clone the repository: git clone https://nakohdo@github.com/nakohdo/moodle-filter_autolinkhijacker.git
3. Rename the folder to your plug-in's name
4. Open Git Bash in that folder

Creating a local branch

1. Open Git Bash in the plug-in folder
2. Create new branch: git branch MOODLE_19_STABLE
3. Change to the new branch: git checkout MOODLE_19_STABLE
   • Both steps in one: git checkout -b MOODLE_19_STABLE

Creating a remote branch

1. Change to the correct local branch
2. git push origin -u MOODLE_19_STABLE
