**Option 1** is preferable to **Option 2**, as you'll be able to `cd` to the vault **root directory** and use the `git pull` terminal command to pull directly from the repo if there are any changes. Using **Option 2** may look easier, but it also means you need to update the vault manually by redownloading the zip file whenever there are changes made to the **GitLab** repo.
Now you're ready to navigate the vault. You can search for any nutrition-related topic you wish. For example, if you want to find information on whole grains, you can search with the hashtag **"#whole_grains"** or the keyword **"whole grains"** to find all notes related to whole grains.
The vault is a work in progress and has taken a great deal of time to build thus far. If you have found this resource useful and wish to support its development, consider pledging to the [**Nutrivore Patreon**](https://www.patreon.com/thenutrivore)!
If you wish to contribute to the vault, submit a [**Merge Request**](https://gitlab.com/BRBWaffles/obsidian/-/merge_requests). If you do make a **Merge Request**, make sure to add the **.obsidian** folder to your **.gitignore** to avoid unnecessary merge conflicts.
