"Gists" are code snippets hosted on GitHub and are used by the research community to quickly share parts of their code so that others can use the code, or change/improve it. In this video, I explain the procedure on how to contribute - including forking the Gist, cloning it to your local computer, pushing your changes back to GitHub, and then notifying the originating Gist owner of your changes.


Btw... then resolution could have been better, so here are the URLs/commands I used:


gist.github.com/hannesdatta -- overview about my Gists
gist.github.com/hannesdatta-research -- public "forks" (choose your username here!)


Cloning the project locally:
git clone https://gist.github.com/[username]/[gist-name] (copy-paste your own fork here)


Git workflow:
git status
git add
git commit -m "message"


git push
