2. Once cloned, open terminal (first icon in the Other column in Launcher) and cd into this repo. Set the repo's remote origin using the git clone url you copied in Step 1, and then create a new branch for your team:

git remote set-url origin <url>
git branch <team_name>
git checkout <team_name>

3. Use the environment manager (ENVS tab in the right sidebar) to install environment "IonQ". The installation should take ~2 min.
4. Once the installation is complete, click Activate to add a new ipykernel for "IonQ".
5. From the FILES tab in the left sidebar, double-click on the IonQ repository directory.
6. Open and follow instructions in verify_setup.ipynb to verify your "IonQ" environment setup.
