I cannot understand this.
I have created a gist. Then I run
$ mkdir mygist $ cd mygist $ git init $ git pull [email protected]:869085.git
Then I add files, change files and try to commit.
$ git add . $ git commit -a -m "Better comments"
Then I do not know how to send it back to github and commit this git.
It's probably easiest if you just start by cloning the gist, so that origin
(a "remote" that refers to the original repository) is set up for you. Then you can just do git push origin master
. For example:
git clone [email protected]:869085.git mygist
cd mygist
# Make your changes...
git add .
git commit -m "Better comments"
git push origin master
However, if you don't want to redo your changes, you can do:
cd mygist
git remote add origin [email protected]:869085.git
git fetch origin
# Push your changes, also setting the upstream for master:
git push -u origin master
Strictly speaking, the git fetch origin
and -u
argument to git push origin master
are optional, but they will helpfully associate the upstream branch master
in origin
with your local branch master
.
