Let’s just imaging simple task: to upload all your files from ‘working_folder’ to your repository on github. Here are steps which you should fulfil:
-install git on your local PC
$ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install git
-configure Git
$ git config --global user.name "User Name" $ git config --global user.email "useremail@mail.com"
-create local repository
$ cd /...full path.../working_folder $ git init
on this step .git folder is created inside the working_folder
-add all files from working_folder to local repository
$ git add * $ git commit -m 'some message'
-create repository on github which would be remote for us
Let’s asume that you have been registered on GitHub under the name ‘my_name’ and you have created repository ‘my_repository’.
-connect local repository to the remote one on github
By default we are on master branch
git remote add origin https://github.com/my_name/my_repository.git
git push -u origin master
