Using the Personal Access Token to Push Changes to a Cloned Repository

1. Clone the repository to your local machine using the git clone command.
2. Make changes to the files in the repository as needed.
3. Open a terminal and navigate to the local repository.
4. Configure Git to use your GitHub username and email address by running the following commands, replacing the placeholders with your own information:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

5. Add the changes to the local repository using the git add command. For example, if you want to add all changes, run git add ..
6. Commit the changes using the git commit command. For example, if you want to commit with a message "Updated files", run git commit -m "Updated files".
7. Push the changes to the remote repository using the git push command and the personal access token you created earlier. For example, if you want to push changes to the main branch, run git push https://<personal-access-token>@github.com/<username>/<repository-name>.git main.

Note: Replace <personal-access-token>, <username>, and <repository-name> with your own information.

That's it! Your changes should now be pushed to the remote repository using your GitHub Personal Access Token.
