How to do it...

AWS CodeCommit is configured just like other Git-based repositories, such as GitHub. The following diagram shows how we use a development machine, AWS CLI/AWS Console, and CodeCommit to create and manage a repository:

(Reference: AWS CodeCommit Docs)

The basic workflow is described as follows:

1. Using AWS CLI  or CodeCommit Console, we can create a CodeCommit repository.
2. Post that, use git clone in the CodeCommit repository URL on your local development machine.
3. Once the repository gets cloned into the development machine, make the changes in the repository by adding to or editing the files. After that, enter the git add command and put it into the staging area, commit by giving a change message, and then push it back to the repository.
4. After that, we can carry out git pull to synchronize the code in the AWS CodeCommit repository with our local repository. At this point in time, you will be working with the latest changes and the versions of the files.
