+# Prepping source code
+
+_Note: The creation of a tarball for your source code is generally done by the developer not the packager_
+
+In this exercise we are going to take the each of our hello world programs (cello, bello, and pello) and create a source archive.
+
+
+## Commands
+
+Create a temporary directory and copy your source code and license into it.
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p /tmp/bello-0.1
+cp -v ../bello /tmp/bell-0.1
+cp -v ./LICENSE tmp/bell-0.1
+```
+
+Then create your archive
+```bash
+tar -cvzf bello-0.1.tar.gz bello-0.1
+```
+
+Rinse and repeat for all the other archives.
