Create a github repository from the current directory

mkgithub.sh

#!/bin/bash

# This will turn the current directory into a repo on Github

# Set the username and password as environment variables like so, in bashrc:
# export GITHUB_USER="User Name Goes Here"
# export GITHUB_TOKEN="API Token Goes Here"

CWD=`basename $PWD`

curl -F "login=$GITHUB_USER" -F "token=$GITHUB_TOKEN" https://github.com/api/v2/yaml/repos/create -F "name=$CWD"

REPO_URL="git@github.com:$GITHUB_USER/$CWD.git"

if [ ! -d $PWD/.git ]; then
    git init
    touch README
    git add README
    git commit -m "first commit"
fi

git remote add origin $REPO_URL
git push origin master
