Fork the project

Open the repo: Opensource-practice.

Click the Fork button at the top‑right to create a copy under your GitHub account.

Create a new branch

In your fork, click the branch dropdown (it shows main).

Type a branch name like add-aryan-bhalsing and click Create branch.

Make sure you are now on that new branch (not main).

Edit the README

Open the README.md file in your fork.

Click the pencil icon (Edit this file).

Scroll to the big A–Z list (“GSSoC24-Community”) and find the section with your initial (likely “A” for Aryan).

Add a new line in correct alphabetical order, like:

• Aryan Bhalsing

Write a commit message, e.g. Add Aryan Bhalsing, and click Commit changes, ensuring the branch is your new one.

Create a Pull Request

In your fork, click Pull Requests at the top.

Click New Pull Request. GitHub will set base repo as recodehive/Opensource-practice main, and compare as your fork main or branch.

Change compare to your new branch (add-aryan-bhalsing).

Click Create Pull Request, add a short description (e.g., “Adding my name for open source practice”), and submit.

Once the maintainer reviews and merges, your name is officially in the repo’s list.

Doing it locally with Git (Option 2)
If you want practice with git commands, use their “Option 2” instructions.

Fork the project on GitHub (same as above).

In your fork, click Code → HTTPS and copy the URL.

On your laptop terminal:

git clone then cd .

git checkout -b add-aryan-bhalsing.

Open README.md in VS Code or any editor and add your name line under your alphabet section.

Run:

git add README.md

git commit -m "Add Aryan Bhalsing"

git push origin add-aryan-bhalsing

Go to your fork on GitHub and click Compare & Pull Request, then Create Pull Request.
