Ans- To add a partner as a collaborator to your remote repository using Git, you can follow these general steps:

1. Open your web browser and navigate to the website of the Git hosting platform where your remote repository is hosted (e.g., GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket).

2. Sign in to your account and locate the repository to which you want to add a collaborator.

3. Navigate to the repository's settings or access management options.

4. Look for a section or tab related to collaborators, access, or permissions.

5. In the collaborators section, search for an option to add a collaborator or invite a user.

6. Enter the username, email address, or name of your partner whom you want to add as a collaborator. Some platforms may provide autocomplete suggestions as you type.

7. Select the appropriate user from the search results, ensuring you are adding the correct person.

8. Depending on the platform, you may have the option to assign specific permissions or access levels to the collaborator. Choose the appropriate level of access for your partner (e.g., read-only access or read-write access).

9. Send the invitation or add the collaborator, depending on the platform. The platform may notify the collaborator via email or platform notification about the invitation.

10. Your partner will receive the invitation to collaborate on the repository. They need to accept the invitation to become a collaborator.

11. Once your partner accepts the invitation, they will gain access to the repository and be able to clone, commit, and push changes to the repository.

It's important to note that the exact steps and terminology may vary depending on the Git hosting platform you are using. Refer to the documentation or support resources provided by the specific platform for detailed instructions on adding collaborators.

Adding a collaborator through the Git hosting platform's interface is the typical and recommended approach for managing access and permissions. While Git itself does not have direct commands for adding collaborators, the hosting platforms provide these features to facilitate collaboration and access control.
