Building a Mini Branch Project in "Learning Git (Version Control)
Asked by Pradeep Balasubramanian about a year ago
I am not able to pass the "Building a Mini Branch Project" We need to create 4 branches and each branch should have content as mentioned in test cases.
In my case, only 'branch1' and 'surprise' branch have correct content when tested. But, I am sure 'branch2' and 'branch3' also have correct content.
Could some one help me to go past this step. All other steps in Git Step is completed.
Thanks,

are you creating the files using "echo" ?
I'm writing down in steps to make it easier: Step 1 : git init
Step 2 : git add .
Step 3 : git commit -m "initial files "
Here you will get an error to config:
*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'damner@codedamn.(none)')
Step 4 : Let's config
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "codedamn"
Step 5 : git commit -m "initial files"
Step 6 : let's make our first branch that is branch1
git checkout -b branch1
Step 7 : Now we are on branch 1,let's create a new file named numbers.txt Click on copy paste icon on top left , and you'll be able to view files .So here create a new file named numbers.txt
Step 8 : add content 1 in numbers.txt
Step 9 : git add .
Step 10 : git commit -m "add numbers.txt"
Here our first challenge is completed. i.e branch1 should contain correct files
Step 11 :Lets create second branch
git checkout -b branch2
Step 12 : add 2 to numbers.txt ,you can do step 7 to view numbers.txt and edit
Step 13 : git add .
Step 14 : git commit -m "add branch2"
Here our second challenge is completed. i.e branch2 should contain correct files
Step 15 : git checkout -b branch3
Step 16: add 3 to numbers.txt ,you can do step 7 to view numbers.txt and edit
Step 17 : git add .
Step 18 : git commit -m "add branch3"
Here our third challenge is completed. i.e branch2 should contain correct files
Step 19 : git checkout -b surprise
Step 20 : follow Step 7 to create a new file named surprise.txt with the content "This is an awesome lab and course on git and I'm loving it."
Step 21 : git add .
Step 22 : git commit -m "add surprise.txt"
Here our fourth challenge is completed. i.e surprise branch should contain correct files
