# Description:
# Sets up a new project repository locally and remotely using gitpod-laravel-starter as the starting point.
# For use in your .bashrc, .bash_profile etc.. You may copy the functions and leave out the licensing.
# Functions from this script can also be called directly using your bash interpreter: 
#     bash new-lgs.sh new_lgs myreponame myusername
# or
#     bash new-lgs.sh new_lgs_from_branch myreponame mybranchname myusername
#
# Additional Notes:
# Make sure the project name you use matches an empty repository you have created on github. If you are
# creating a project from a branch, make sure that branch exists
# Also make sure you are in the location where you want your project to be before you run this script
