Yeah, there is only an instance of one "test -f" in that file, you can take it as a microproject since the main point of a microproject is to get you familiar with the Git project workflow. You can work on it now. Also, we do not assign work here. You are free to work on anything you like or interested in so far, no other a person is working on it.

Thank you. Usman Akinyemi.
