Git adding files to repo

This is actually a multi-step process. First you'll need to add all your files to the current stage:

git add .

You can verify that your files will be added when you commit by checking the status of the current stage:

git status

The console should display a message that lists all of the files that are currently staged, like this:

# On branch master
#
# Initial commit
#
# Changes to be committed:
#   (use "git rm --cached <file>..." to unstage)
#
#   new file:   README
#   new file:   src/somefile.js
#

If it all looks good then you're ready to commit. Note that the commit action only commits to your local repository.

git commit -m "some message goes here"

If you haven't connected your local repository to a remote one yet, you'll have to do that now. Assuming your remote repository is hosted on GitHub and named "Some-Awesome-Project", your command is going to look something like this:

git remote add origin [email protected]:username/Some-Awesome-Project

It's a bit confusing, but by convention we refer to the remote repository as 'origin' and the initial local repository as 'master'. When you're ready to push your commits to the remote repository (origin), you'll need to use the 'push' command:

git push origin master

I had an issue with connected repository. What's how I fixed:

I deleted manually .git folder under my project folder, run git init and then it all worked.
