Commit to Github

Now that you have a working mod, we can commit the code to the Github repository that we created earlier.

Before we do, we'll need to tweak our repository config a little:

  1. Run GitHub Desktop.

  2. If not already selected, select your "Subnautica2Mods" repository from the drop down.

  3. You'll see a load of files marked with a green "+" symbol. These are new files that GitHub Desktop has identified, but we don't want to check all of those into our repo.

  4. In your repo folder, \SubnauticaMods\, there is a file called .gitignore. Find it and open it in VS Code.

  5. Right at the bottom of the file, add these lines to ignore all files in the shared folder:

# UE Mod development files
*/shared/

  1. Now go back into GitHub Desktop and you'll see a bunch of files disappear, leaving only your mod and config files:

  2. In the bottom left, enter a summary of what you've done: "Created my first mod" or something similar.

  3. Click the "Commit files to main" button.

You've created your first mod and commited the source to your GitHub repository - good work!
