You can look up the specific GIT syntax. it is just a source control system. If you are not understanding how things are done, you could try looking up source control systems in general. Think of github as a shared or public hard drive. To make changes you will have to download the code to your local machine. You can then make changes and submit those changes to be copied to the shared drive. The purpose of all this is to maintain a change list and history of changes. This is so when something breaks, you can see the change list that broke it. This significantly narrows down where the bug is, often to a few lines of code. Github is just a place to store repositories. Think of it like that and it will be a lot easier.
As beginner it might take you some time to get used to it. But, it’s a must for all programmers to have GitHub account as it would prove to be really helpful in future. Using GitHub, you’ll be able to share your code easily with you your clients and colleagues. You’ll also be able to contribute to open source projects, which would help you to practice your programming skills. You can create repositories where you can store your code and download it when required. You can also start you own open source projects and programmers all across the world would help you to accomplish the goal of your project..
