Integrating GitHub

Recently we used GitHub to have a space for a plugin to be stored and edited no matter where we were for convenience.

This plugin is called “Hello Worthy” and is an adaptation of the popular plugin “Hello Dolly” featuring song lyrics displayed on the hub of WordPress.

Personally I used GitHub whilst working at home to have the ability to take a copy of the current files and have my own separate version to edit and change. The changes I made were just adjusting the words that displayed on screen to web tips.

Once I was finished with my adjustment of the content I created a “pull request” meaning I could ask to have my version merged in with the one I “forked” (copied) it from.
