So I found another big thing: hidden files. I had to debug an Atom package and all the internet advice sent me to a hidden directory, /.atom. Couldn't find it so I searched help - again - on the internet. The dot before the name hides the directory, file or whatever. This can be solved by pushing `strg+h` inside the files or - for checking it in the terminal - `ls -a`.
Small edit-edit: Okay, I think I figured out how it works in Atom. So after doing what I described in the previous paragraph, one has to go to the braching selection, go to `New Branch`, type in the same name of the branch and then fetch said branch with Right-click and fetch. I'm not sure if this is the intended way, but it works. To be honest, doing it in Sublime was much more intuitive.
Create branch from remote branch! Ok, so there's difference between "branch" and remote "branch". If someone wants to edit an existing branch from a project, they first need to add a remote branch from the origin branch. That's what confused me. So `clone` only adds the master to the local machine and not the branched, which have to be added separately.

I'm slowly beginning to really like Ubuntu, even though it at times can be frustrating. It's a love-hate relationship. The great thing about Linux is: it does what you tell it to do. The bad thing about Linux is: it does what you tell it to do. I think as soon as I'm settled in with all the software I need and am comfortable with everything, it'll be a very enjoyable experience working on Linux. What I really need to get into are the different file-types on Linux. I'm sometimes not sure how to do installations or what to do with other files. But I think this will improve over time.
