Connect from Local Git to Github

GIT

Create a user git

chown -R git:git /home/git

su git

$ cd /home/git

$ mkdir .ssh

$ cd .ssh

$ git config --global user.name "git"

$ git config --global user.email "yashwanthsn@gmail.com"

$ git config --list

user.name=git
user.email=yashwanthsn@gmail.com

Create a repository on GITHUB: https://github.com/new
enter the details and click on create repository

Create a "automation" directory on local git

$ mkdir automation

$ cd automation

$ pwd
/home/git/automation

run git init command

Add SSH git link using git remote add origin command

git remote add origin git@github.com:yashwanthsn2020/automation.git

you can change this to https git link later using git remote set-url origin command

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:yashwanthsn2020/automation.git

Create a config file under $HOME/.ssh in local git

check on how to add SSH Keys from local Git to GITHUB repository -> Generate SSH Keys for Github GIT

Now check the branch and run git push command using git branch and git push commands

Now go to GITHUB -> https://github.com and click on automation repository

In my case the link is https://github.com/yashwanthsn2020/automation

You will be able to see the file that we pushed from local git to github
