Report of Process: To make this file, I first forked the repo for homework 1 from the class page on Git. Then, I opened an RStudio project using the link from this forked repo (cloning the forked repo from my homework repo and opening it in RStudio/Git Client in R, by opening a new project in R). Once the README.md document was opened in RStudio, I made changes in the Markdown window, using the online GitHub guide for RMarkdown. I was able to figure out how to add an image when the image is hyperlinked somewhere online, but couldn't figure out how to do it with a file saved on my computer (even when the file was saved to the same R folder). I saved changes frequently and committed many of these saved changes over the last couple days in the Git Client window in RStudio (commenting on the changes I've made). I then pulled my changes in the Git Client window (to get used to this, although I don't expect outside changes to be made to my homework at this point). Then I push my changes from RStudio, and this sends my commits to Git online. I finally submit my final html and .md files online by creating a pull request to the class homework from which the repo was forked. One issue I came across a few times (both in the terminal and when pushing/pulling from RStudio) was issues "merging" files. In lab on Monday, Josh helped my to resolve this issue basically by telling the computer in terminal where the latest changes were made, but I still worry that I don't fundamentally understand what is going on when I run into this issue. Error messages include statements such as "Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files" and "fatal: refusing to merge unrelated histories".
