Commit and push changes to Bitbucket Server
- Set up Sourcetree to work with Bitbucket Server
- Create a personal repository in Bitbucket Server
- Clone your repository and manage files locally
- Commit and push changes to Bitbucket Server
In this step you are going to make some changes to the HTML files added to your repository in Step 3. Once you make the changes and commit them you can add them to your repository on Bitbucket Server. It's not enough to just make your changes, you have to share them with the world!

This step explains how to make a simple change in a source file that you'll then commit locally and push to your personal repository.
- Open the
Teams in Space.htmlfile in a text editor. Find the
<h3>Main Menu</h3>line. Within that menu, add another list item to add a link to the itinerary on the main menu.
(You can copy this code and add it in your HTML file).<li id="menu-item-65" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-65"><a href="http://localhost:2431/?page_id=60">Moon Itinerary</a></li>Save the file.
- Check your work by going to the
Teams in Space.htmlfile and opening it in a web browser. It should now look something like this.
