This is further to my previous post. Now, you have created a repository in GitHub, but the question is how would you associate your online repository to your laptop and add files.
We can definitely do this over the browser by uploading files, but let us see how do we do it by using command line.
We will use the following git commands.
Step 1: We need to first install GitHub in your machine from the below url
Step 2: Use command promt or Terminal and go to the folder where you want the repository. use the below command to clone the repository.
Before that copy the https url from github, refer to the image to find where you will get the url of your repository.
git clone https://github.com/apartha77/PSD-AWS-CNF.git
If this first time then you will not have any file, but in the following steps we will add files from your machine.
Step 3: Now first we will do a git pull, although we know there is no file in our repository to be downloaded locally. But wanted to cover the command here.
git pull
Step 4: Now chek status of our repository
git status
Step 5: Now that we have created few files which we want to push/upload to github. We can use add . and then commit or we can put both in one command. We can add comments of what we are committing in this push.
git add .
git commit -a -m "first add"
Step 6: Now chek status of our repository
git status
Step 7: You can check the files over the browser reflecting in your repository.
