Here are the steps to pull code from CodeCommit into a new folder using Git:

  1. Create the new folder:
    • Open a terminal or command prompt.
    • Navigate to the desired location for the new folder using the cd command.
    • Create the new folder using the mkdir command, followed by the folder name: mkdir my-new-project
  2. Initiate a Git repository:
    • Navigate into the newly created folder: cd my-new-project
    • Initialize a Git repository within the folder: git init
  3. Add the remote CodeCommit repository:
    • Use the git remote add command to specify the URL of the CodeCommit repository: git remote add origin https://your-codecommit-repository-url
      • Replace https://your-codecommit-repository-url with the actual URL of your CodeCommit repository.
  4. Pull the code:
    • Fetch the latest changes from the remote repository: git fetch origin
    • Merge the fetched changes into your local branch (usually master): git pull origin main
      • Replace main with the name of the branch you want to pull if it’s different (e.g. master).

Now, the code from CodeCommit should be successfully pulled into your new folder!

Additional considerations:

  • If you encounter authentication issues, configure your Git credentials for CodeCommit using the git config command.
  • If you need to create a new branch locally for your work, use git checkout -b new-branch.
  • Remember to commit and push your local changes back to CodeCommit as needed using git commit and git push.
