[git-users] create initial remote git repository fast

[kumar]

Hi 

I am setting up a repository for the first. I already have a project of 
18GB about 200,000 files. 
Currently these are the steps i am doing

git add .
git commit -m "Initial"
git push

Considering the size and 3 steps it is taking time. Is there an faster way 
to accomplish this? Is it possible to to push to the remote repository in 
one step since it is for the first time? I have about 5 such projects.

Thanks
