clone
A clone is a copy of a repository that lives on your computer instead of on a website's server somewhere, or the act of making that copy. When you make a clone, you can edit the files in your preferred editor and use Git to keep track of your changes without having to be online. The repository you cloned is still connected to the remote version so that you can push your local changes to the remote to keep them synced when you're online.
code of conduct

commit
A commit, or "revision", is an individual change to a file (or set of files). When you make a commit to save your work, Git creates a unique ID (a.k.a. the "SHA" or "hash") that allows you to keep record of the specific changes committed along with who made them and when. Commits usually contain a commit message which is a brief description of what changes were made.
commit author
The user who makes the commit.
commit ID
Also known as SHA. A 40-character checksum hash that identifies the commit.
commit message
Short, descriptive text that accompanies a commit and communicates the change the commit is introducing.
cron

enterprise account
Enterprise accounts allow you to centrally manage policy and billing for multiple KEDEHub organizations.
fast-forward
A fast-forward is a special type of merge where you have a revision and you are "merging" another branch's changes that happen to be a descendant of what you have. In such a case, you do not make a new merge commit but instead just update to this revision. This will happen frequently on a remote-tracking branch of a remote repository.
fork
A fork is a personal copy of another user's repository that lives on your account. Forks allow you to freely make changes to a project without affecting the original upstream repository. You can also open a pull request in the upstream repository and keep your fork synced with the latest changes since both repositories are still connected.
Free plan
A user account billing plan that is free.
Git
Git is an open source program for tracking changes in text files. It was written by the author of the Linux operating system, and is the core technology that KEDEHub utilizes.
Git Importer

gitfile
A plain .git file, which is always at the root of a working tree and
points to the Git directory, which has the entire Git repository and its meta data.
You can view this file for your repository on the command line with
git rev-parse --git-dir. that is the real repository.
hostname

license
A document that you can include with your project to let people know what they can and can't do with your source code.

open source
Open source software is software that can be freely used, modified, and shared (in both modified and unmodified form) by anyone. Today the concept of "open source" is often extended beyond software, to represent a philosophy of collaboration in which working materials are made available online for anyone to fork, modify, discuss, and contribute to.
organization
Organizations are a group of two or more users that typically mirror real-world organizations. They are administered by users and can contain both repositories and teams.
organization owner

The page that shows information about a user's activity on KEDEHub.
profile photo
A custom image users upload to KEDEHub.
public project

pull
Pull refers to when you are fetching in changes and merging them. For instance, if someone has edited the remote file you're both working on, you'll want to pull in those changes to your local copy so that it's up to date. See also fetch.
rebase

remote URL

subscription
A user or organization's KEDEHub plan.
team
A group of organization members that reflect your company or group's structure with cascading access permissions and mentions.
upstream
When talking about a branch or a fork, the primary branch on the original repository is often referred to as the "upstream", since that is the main place that other changes will come in from. The branch/fork you are working on is then called the "downstream". Also called origin.
user
Users are people with personal KEDEHub accounts. Each user has a personal profile, and can own multiple repositories, public or private. They can create or be invited to join organizations or collaborate on another user's repository.
