Forking of the repo

@SiddarthNilol
Hey, you don't need to. As mentioned in the instructions to submit an issue, I have mentioned that you can add the main repo as another remote. So this becomes like another origin for you. Do that by git remote add main "https://github.com/analytics-club-iitm/Daily-Sessions.git" and hence this repo is referred to by main.

A remote is like a reference to your git folder hosted online.

So next time you want to update your local repo of the fork, just do git fetch main master and git merge main/master. This should update your local repo with the updates in this main repo.
To push that to your fork just add those files and push it to the remote called origin which refers to your forked repo.

Check this out the second section in this link

And by seeing your commit info I don't think you have used the git command line. Please make sure to do that as it has a lot of options.

@SiddarthNilol Hey sorry I didn't see your message. Yeah, so it's just asking a message for the merge you have done.
To move forward from here press ESC and then type :wq this means to save and exit. This comes up at the bottom of the terminal as you type this. It should then merge. Whenever we merge a commit is also made and hence it's asking for a message.

[SiddarthNilol]

I'm not able to get a new prompt after doing "git log --all --oneline --decorate"

[MukundVarmaT]

@SiddarthNilol Once again the same thing. See the colon on the bottom left. type wq and hit enter it will close.

[SiddarthNilol]

Cool! Got it. Thanks

@SiddarthNilol Hey in case everything is fine please close this issue. You can always open another one in case something pops up.
