BASIC GIT COMMANDS 

Install git using:
    sudo apt-get install git

After downloading, first configure git by giving username and email of your git account on github.com or bitbucket.org:
    git config --global user.name 'saurabhs92'
    git config --global userm.email 'saurabhs92@gmail.com'

Go to github.com or bitbucket.org and create a new repository. For example create git-test repo on github.com 
Make a folder for your repo in your system. Ex:
    mkdir gittest
  
Inside that folder initialize git:
    git init
(Creates .git hidden folder containing files required by github. Check using ls -a or cd .git/)


To push a file for the FIRST time: Example add a README file to the repository:
    emacs README (Add a description for your repository and save the file)
    git add .
    git commit -m 'First commit' (-m stands for message)

To finally add these files to your repository, first link them using: use git remote add origin https://github.com/<username>/<repository name>.git  For example:
    git remote add origin https://github.com/saurabhs92/git-test.git

Finally push the files to the master branch:
    git push origin master
(Provide username and password at the prompt)
