    Add an existing project


Create a new repository on GitHub. You can also add a gitignore file, a readme and a licence if you want
git init
git add .
git commit -m "initial commit"
git remote add origin remote_repository_URL
git remote -v
git push -f origin master

Delete Branch

Local:

git branch -d the_local_branch (or use -D to force it)
Remove:

git push origin --delete the_remote_branch
Rename directory

git mv <old name> <new name>
Casesensitive rename: using tmp as a buffer
Delete all commit history of master but keep the current one.


Checkout
git checkout --orphan latest_branch


Add all the files
git add -A


Commit the changes
git commit -am "commit message"


Delete the branch
git branch -D master


Rename the current branch to master
git branch -m master


Finally, force update your repository
git push -f origin master


Print upstream URL

git config --get remote.origin.url
Rmove directory from git and local

git rm -r one-of-the-directories // This deletes from filesystem
git commit . -m "Remove duplicated directory"
git push origin <your-git-branch> (typically 'master', but not always)
Squash commit

git pull
git checkout <your_branch>
git rebase -i master
git push -f origin <your_branch]>
