As a user, what feature can you use to merge proposed changes in a repository on GitHub?

  1. Issues
  2. Pull requests
  3. Projects
  4. Discussions

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The feature you can use to merge proposed changes in a repository on GitHub is Pull requests. Pull requests are a core feature of GitHub, allowing developers to propose changes to a codebase, review code, discuss the changes, and eventually merge them into the main branch. This collaborative workflow ensures that code is reviewed and vetted before becoming part of the project.



What layouts are available for GitHub Projects?

(Each answer presents a complete solution. Choose three.)

  1. Roadmap
  2. Kanban
  3. Board
  4. Table
  5. Backlog

Answer(s): B,C,D

Explanation:

GitHub Projects supports various layouts to help teams organize and visualize their work. The available layouts include:

B . Kanban: This is a visual task management tool where tasks are represented as cards and moved across columns that represent different stages of work.

C . Board: This layout is similar to Kanban but can be more flexible, allowing users to set up boards in various ways to suit their workflow needs.

D . Table: The Table layout allows you to view your tasks in a spreadsheet-like format, making it easy to manage and edit large amounts of data at once.

Roadmap and Backlog are not standard layouts provided by GitHub Projects.
While these terms might be relevant in other project management contexts, GitHub Projects specifically offers Kanban,

Board, and Table layouts.



Which of the following describes a branch in Git?

  1. A pointer to an identical snapshot of the project at a specific point in time
  2. A physical copy of the entire project stored on disk
  3. A separate, isolated copy of the project's codebase
  4. A new repository that shares code with the original "upstream" repository

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

In Git, a branch is a fundamental concept that represents an independent line of development within a project. Here's a more detailed explanation:

Branch in Git:

Option C is correct because a branch in Git is essentially a separate, isolated copy of the project's codebase where you can make changes without affecting the main codebase. Branches allow developers to work on features, fixes, or experiments in parallel to the main project.

Other Options:

Option A is incorrect because while a branch does point to a specific commit (which represents a snapshot of the project), the description lacks the emphasis on the isolated and parallel development aspect that is critical to the understanding of branches.

Option B is incorrect because a branch is not a physical copy stored on disk; it is a logical reference within the repository.

Option D is incorrect because that description better fits the concept of a fork, not a branch. A fork is a new repository that is a copy of another repository, usually used to contribute back to the original ("upstream") repository.

Where should a repository admin navigate to view pre-built visualizations from repository data?

  1. Settings
  2. Issues
  3. Insights
  4. Charts

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

GitHub provides repository admins with a feature called "Insights" where they can view various pre- built visualizations and analytics related to the repository.

Insights:

Option C is correct because the "Insights" tab in a GitHub repository offers various pre-built visualizations, including contributions, traffic, code frequency, dependency graphs, and more. This helps admins and maintainers track the project's activity and health.

Other Options:

Option A (Settings) is incorrect because the Settings tab is where you configure repository settings, permissions, and integrations, but it does not provide visualizations of repository data.

Option B (Issues) is incorrect because the Issues tab is used for tracking bugs, enhancements, and other tasks but does not provide data visualizations.

Option D (Charts) is incorrect as there is no "Charts" tab or section in GitHub. The correct location for data visualizations is under "Insights."

How can a user create a repository template, and what permissions are required?

  1. With Admin permissions, navigate to Repository settings and select Template Repository.
  2. With Maintain permissions, navigate to Organization settings, select the repository, and choose Template Repository.
  3. With Admin permissions, navigate to Organization settings, select the repository, and choose Template Repository.
  4. With Maintain permissions, navigate to Repository settings and select Template Repository.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Creating a repository template in GitHub requires specific steps and permissions:

Creating a Repository Template:

Option A is correct because a user with Admin permissions can navigate to the repository's settings and enable the "Template Repository" option. This allows other users to generate new repositories from this template, which includes all branches, tags, and file history.

Other Options:

Option B is incorrect because "Maintain" permissions do not allow the creation of repository templates, and the option is not found in Organization settings but in the repository settings.

Option C is incorrect because the "Template Repository" option is in the repository settings, not in Organization settings.

Option D is incorrect because "Maintain" permissions do not grant the ability to create a repository template.

question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
