17. Source Control  How we use it  Clone the branch that is on the server  This gives us a local copy of the branch.  Make changes on that local copy, and then commit those changes to the server.  Committing  First Commit the changes you have made to your computer  Push those changes to the server  Pull from the main branch, so you get all the recent changes that have been made on portal. Merge those changes with the changes you are making on your branch.  Lastly push those changes on your branch to the server
