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. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
