Git procedure to upload to a Github Repo

Git_Init

First of all, initialize a git repo on the local machine by typing:
>>git init
in the git command prompt under the working directory.

In order to add the files one can use the command
>> git add .
The . ensures all files in the directory become part of the repo

At this time one can leave a commit message keeping track of the changes made in the repo
>> git commit -m "A message"

Now that the repo is locally set, we can sync it with a remote repo on github
>> git remote add origin https://github.com/user/repo.git

Where https://github.com/user/repo.git is the url of the repo on Github.
Once a remote is added, we can verify the sync by:
>> git remote -v

Finally push the local repo to remote Github by:
>> git push origin master

!! Pushing may not work for the first time. We can force-push the first time and it will be set from then on. Add -f flag to force push
>> git push -f origin master
