Example 1: set up git repository

# New local repository
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"

# New remote repository
# Create remote repository (likely on github), then:
git remote add origin https://github.com/username/new_repo #https
git remote add origin [email protected]:username/new_repo #ssh
# Now push
git push -u origin master
