This make sense Anastasia?

I think so. I’ve filled this in using some more specific examples, based on my general workflow with IDRC projects. Let me know if I’m understanding correctly:

  1.  Create a new repository on github. i.e. docs-video-player

So I would do this in fluid-project, to create https://github.com/fluid-project/docs-video-player. It would be empty, to start. I would probably also fork this to my own repository, i.e. https://github.com/acheetham/docs-video-player, since that’s usually how I start to work with a fluid-project repository.

  1.
  2.  Fork docs-template so now you have docs-template and docs-video-player on github.

So I would fork https://github.com/fluid-project/docs-template into https://github.com/acheetham/docs-template

  1.
  2.  Clone docs-template locally into the directory you will be working from  i.e. clone into ./docs-video-player

I would clone https://github.com/acheetham/docs-template into docs-video-player on my laptop.

Question: Could I skip step 2, and just clone https://github.com/fluid-project/docs-template directly?

  1.
  2.  From within docs-video-player rename origin to something else. i.e. git remote rename origin docs-template

Ok

  1.
  2.  Add the new remote you want to push to as the new origin i.e. git remote add origin https://www.github.com/~acheetham/docs-video-player/

Gotcha. I’d also set https://github.com/fluid-project/docs-video-player as my upstream.

  1.
  2.  Now grab your node dependencies, make your changes, add content, styling etc.

  3.  When ready commit your changes to your repository

I would push my branches to my origin (https://github.com/acheetham/docs-video-player) and issue pull requests against https://github.com/fluid-project/docs-video-player.

Sound right? reasonable?
