🎯 Mission Briefing: Ship It

The feature is finally done. Before you can call it a day, you need to commit your work, take a backup snapshot of the project, and get it pushed for the team to see.

Your objective

Commit your changes with Git, archive the project as a backup, and push the commit to the remote.

Step 1 — Commit your work

The project lives in ~/dashboard:

cd ~/dashboard
git status
git add .
git commit -m "Ship feature: user dashboard"

Step 2 — Take a backup archive

Before pushing, it's good practice to snapshot the working tree:

tar -czvf backup-$(date +%F).tar.gz .
ls -lh backup-*.tar.gz

Step 3 — Push it

git push origin main

Step 4 — Verify

git log --oneline -n 3
git status

A clean git status ("nothing to commit, working tree clean") after pushing means the job is done right.
