git push -u origin master
# New local repository
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
# New remote repository

git remote add origin git@github.com:username/new_repo #ssh
# Now push
git push -u origin master
Example 4: git add existing project to repository
git remote add origin <repository url>
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
Example 5: how to push your code to github
We make a change in one branch, and we want carry that
change to another branch. In order two merge two branches,
we need to
1. Switch to the branch where we want to take the changes to.
git checkout master(recently changed to main)
2. Run the merge command by mentioning the branch name
where the changes are.
git merge develop
Takes the changes from develop and merges into my current
branch (master)
git branch -d <branch_name> deletes the branch.
If we have unmerged changes, this command gives a warning
and does not delete.
git branch -D <branch_name> deletes the branch even if it has
unmerged changes. Gives no warning.
git push --set-upstream origin <branch_name> it creates a
new branch with given name in the remote and pushes the
changes from local branch to the new branch.
Example 6: push an existing repository from the command line
cd #existing_dir
git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/ #Repo
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
