How to Update and Share Changes in Godot Using GitHub Desktop

In this guide, we'll learn how to update a shared project repository using GitHub Desktop. This process ensures that changes made to a project, such as creating a new scene in Godot, are reflected on all collaborators' computers. By committing and pushing updates to the main repository, team members can pull the latest changes and stay synchronized.

Let's get started

Now that we've cloned our repository and can edit the project, we need to ensure our changes are reflected on others' computers working on the project. For example, in Godot, let's create a new scene and call it "test."

If you hit Push, it will push the change to the project to everyone's machine.
