 ## Development environment
 
 If you're looking contribute to [Fig](http://www.fig.sh/)
 but you're new to the project or maybe even to Python, here are the steps
 that should get you started.
 
-1. Fork [https://github.com/docker/fig](https://github.com/docker/fig) to your username. kvz in this example.
-1. Clone your forked repository locally `git clone [email protected]:kvz/fig.git`.

-1. Works for you? Run the test suite via `./script/test` to verify it won't break other usecases.
-1. All good? Commit and push to GitHub, and submit a pull request.
