• Github is a hosting platform for git repos. You can put your own repo on Github and access them from anywhere and share them with people around the world.
• Git Origin: When we clone a Github repo, the default remote name setup for us is called origin.
• git remote and git remote -v : It consists of an URL and a Label.
• git remote add <name> <url> : adds a new remote
• git push <remote> <branch> : push the work onto github. (git push origin master)

Push In Detail:

• git push <remote> <local branch> : <remote-branch>
• Eg: git push origin cats:master
• git push -u origin master : When you do this you are saying git to push the master branch to origin and want to remember that. I want git to recall in the future that my master branch on my computer is connected to the origin.

1. Connnecting an Existing Repo:

• Create a new repo on github
• Connect your local repo (add a remote : destination url)
• push up you changes to Github

2. Start from scratch:

• If you have not begun work on your local repo, you can
  • create a brand new repo on github
  • clone it down to your machine
  • Do some work locally
  • Push up your changes to Github
