3. git clone repo to dir

4. git branch -a (to see list of branches)

5. git checkout {$ a branch name on git}

6. git checkout -b {$ your branch name} {$a branch name on git} 
(Create your branch of the content of the git branch)

7. Your git should be at your branch

8. to commit, git add . (add all changes)

9. git commit -m "commit messages"

10. (if want a tag, create tag locally for this commit) git tag v0.19

11. git push -u origin {$ your branch} 
(do it only for first time, because branch not up on git)
