cloning laravel project from github
<p>I'm new to GitHub and I found this site very useful for a lot of us. I came upon storing my Laravel project here in GitHub, but there's a problem every time I will clone it to be able to go to production, when I'm about to clone it at first, it always shows this error.</p>
<pre><code>Warning: require(C:\xampp\htdocs\tourismPortal\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\xampp\htdocs\tourismPortal\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'C:\xampp\htdocs\tourismPortal\bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.;C:\xampp\php\PEAR') in C:\xampp\htdocs\tourismPortal\bootstrap\autoload.php on line 17
</code></pre>
<p>I know this will be solved by using composer update on it, but is there any way to prevent this error so that every time I clone it, I will go to production without encountering this error? Thanks, by the way, I'm using <code>tortoisegit</code> to clone, pull and push.</p>
