This tutorial explains how to use the git remote add origin command to connect a local project or repository to a service like GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket.

To link a new Git branch to your remote GitHub or GitLab repo, you must use the 'set upstream' Git push command. This walkthrough shows you how.

Git uses a branch-per-issue model; the local copy is the branch you’re currently working on. You can commit to it, roll it back and, periodically, push it to the GitHub server.

Keeping your code repositories in-house is a good way to avoid security leaks. Jack Wallen shows you how easy it is to connect to a Gogs local repository from the Git command line.
