1
00:00:00,390 --> 00:00:03,660
Okay, so
now we have a repository on GitHub.

2
00:00:03,660 --> 00:00:05,740
As we talked about briefly
in the first stage,

3
00:00:05,740 --> 00:00:07,730
issues are typically used to track bugs or

4
00:00:07,730 --> 00:00:12,530
features, but really, issues can be used
for just about any task you want to track.

5
00:00:12,530 --> 00:00:16,240
It could be your to-do list or
a list of goals you want to accomplish.

6
00:00:16,240 --> 00:00:18,650
The issue remains open while it's yet
to be complete, and

7
00:00:18,650 --> 00:00:21,740
then you can close the issue
once it's been taken care of.

8
00:00:21,740 --> 00:00:24,460
Let's open some issues in our repo.

9
00:00:24,460 --> 00:00:27,630
We'll navigate to the Issues
tab from the main view, and

10
00:00:27,630 --> 00:00:29,240
we'll click on the New Issue button.

11
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:33,500
There are a couple things we
might want to do and track.

12
00:00:33,500 --> 00:00:35,700
We could use a README with
more information in it so

13
00:00:35,700 --> 00:00:38,010
people know what the repo is about.

14
00:00:38,010 --> 00:00:40,780
I'll create this issue
to add a README file.

15
00:00:46,309 --> 00:00:49,501
This'll be our title, and in
the description we can add more context.

16
00:01:00,128 --> 00:01:02,490
And you'll click Submit New Issue.

17
00:01:04,650 --> 00:01:08,680
If you have additional comments you can
add them below the main issue body.

18
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,380
Back in the issues tab,
we now have one issue open.

19
00:01:12,380 --> 00:01:15,278
We could also open another issue
to track the courses in our

20
00:01:15,278 --> 00:01:16,820
Treehouse learning track.

21
00:01:16,820 --> 00:01:19,208
I'm on the python learning track so
I'll add an issue,

22
00:01:19,208 --> 00:01:26,070
Python Track Courses to be Completed.

23
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,090
In the body of the issue,
we'll use Markdown to style the text.

24
00:01:33,090 --> 00:01:37,385
Markdown is a syntax GitHub uses
to add text formatting to issues,

25
00:01:37,385 --> 00:01:42,490
pull requests, and files with the .md or
.markdown extension.

26
00:01:42,490 --> 00:01:45,500
We'll talk about markdown and
finish this issue in the next video.
