Lesson 1 – GIT GitLab and Source Control
Source control is important because it allows you to track changes to your code and rollback if you have made a mistake, it also allows to more easily colaborate with multiple developers working on the same project.
a) Install GIT
https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/install-git
b) Sign up for GitLab –
https://about.gitlab.com/
This is where we will be storing our code which will later be used for deploying to our WordPress installation.
c) Create a branch to work on your code
git checkout -b mywordpresstheme
d) Commit and Push code to your gitlab repository
git add .
git commit -m “my initial commit”
git push
e) Configure GitLab CICD Pipeline for AutoDeployment
