git journey

23OCT2024

Make sure your .gitignore and .gitattributes files are in place.

In VS you can press: CTRL + '

Or in Ubuntu go to the root of the solution in terminal

git init

git add .

git commit -m "Initial commit"

Then Create a Repository on GitHub:

Go to GitHub and log in.

Click on the New button to create a new repository.

Name the repository, set it to public or private, and create it.

Add the Remote Repository: Copy the repository URL from GitHub and use it to add a remote in your local Git.

git remote add origin https://github.com/your-username/your-repository.git

Push Your Code: Push your local repository to GitHub.

git push -u origin master  (check if master or main)

git branch  listed the branch, funnily enough

Then later after some code-peddling

git add .

git commit -m "Update Program.cs to handle media downloads"

git push origin master

Origin is shorthand for url: https://github.com/yourusername/your-repo.git

Poxy CRLF issue  Try:

git config --global core.autocrlf true                    On windows

git config --global core.autocrlf input                  On linux
