So, inspired by all this discussion about editing the dictionary, I tried to follow Ali's instructions for getting set up on github, etc. (from https://github.com/livecode/livecode/blob/community-docs/docs/contributing_to_docs.md), in particular the section under "Command line".

I got registered as a user, verified my email, .....

and then

go to the livecode repohttps://github.com/livecode/livecodeand click Fork

Done OK.

then in a terminal window, in a suitable directory, run

|git clone --recursive https://github.com/<your user name>/livecode.git|

Done OK

once this is done, add the livecode repo as upstream

|git remote add upstream https://github.com/livecode/livecode.git|

Fails. I get the following ....
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/livecode/livecode.git
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Any ideas or suggestions ?

Thanks
Alex.
btw - I loved the fact that the first line of instruction under "command line" included an instruction telling me to click somewhere.
