Not quite a newbie question, but it's back to basics.  I've a github 
account @applemcg  and have created a few REPOs there -- shell functions..

This time, from the command line, I've started from scratch, following the 
book: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Getting-a-Git-Repository, 
where in a local directory i've:

>   825  git clone --bare commonlib commonlib.git
marty3.$ !825
git clone --bare commonlib commonlib.git
fatal: repository 'commonlib' does not exist
marty3.$ git status
On branch master
nothing to commit, working tree clean
marty3.$ git ls-files
.gitignore
README.md
bin/applib
bin/commonlib
bin/ftplib
bin/refresh_test
bin/refreshlib
lib/but_not_these.awk
marty3.$ 

I'm preparing to push this onto my applemcg account.   But would like to 
know how to establish a REPO and it's name on the local machine.   Here is 
evidence of one of my earlier REPOs which I established through a browser 
on github:

shellfunctions.$ !840
git remote -v
origin  g...@github.com:applemcg/shellfunctions.git (fetch)
origin  g...@github.com:applemcg/shellfunctions.git (push)
shellfunctions.$ 

What is the name of my local REPO, or how do i create the name for it?  (I 
don't think the book is clear about that)

I've experimented with git clone options, but, the question remains?

 I've read enough here to know that the directory name is of no 
consequence, necessarily to git.
