How to Add a Bio

Find the Greyhound's file

From the repository's home page open the link to the _greyhounds folder, or click this link.

Each Greyhound has a .md file in this folder with their name, e.g. Abby's file is abby.md. Find and open the file for the Greyhound.

You can also use GitHub's file search feature by clicking the "Find File" button from the repository's home page, or by clicking this link, and typing the Greyhound's name in the search bar.

Edit the Greyhound's file

Once the Greyhound's file has been opened, find and click the pencil icon to edit the file.

Save and submit changes

After entering the Greyhound's bio, scroll down to the bottom of the page. There should be a section called "Commit Changes". Change the option in that section from "Commit directly to the source branch." to "Create a new branch for this commit and start a pull request.", then press the "Propose file change" button.
