Computer Programming C++ / Defining New Data-Types

For the past week or so, we have been running into an error when we try to perform a git add. This video will explain the error and show you how to make it go away.

Forking and Pull Requests

Sometimes you may want your own version of someone else's code. Possibly, someone you don't even know. So, it's not likely that they're going to give you access to their repository, but you can create a fork! This video will explain.
