Preparing project for Git

Saturday 13, May 2017   |   Post link

This really is a note for myself. Often I need to either setup a project for Git or use an existing Git project locally. Here are the steps to do both.

Preparing a new project for Git

Let's say I have a local project which I want to add to my remote Git server.

cd My-Project
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
Rem ** Create a project in gitlab/github and use that URL below **
git remote add origin {project url}
git push -f origin master

Cloning an exsiting project

Let's say I have an existing project on GitHub which I want to fetch and work on.

git clone {Project Url}

And that's all there is to it.
