Welcome to this journey, everybody is invited to explore and collaborate!
Hi there! I will be sharing with you the steps that I took to publish a website using Git and Github, I will also be sharing some Git useful commands.
You need a Github account and Git installed on your system... Let's start!
#1 Go to the project folder and start Git Bash:
#2 Execute git init:
#3 To check the status execute git status:
#4 To add all elements execute git add *:
#5 To check again the status execute git status this will show you the elements added (changes to be commited):
#6 To commit elements execute git commit -m "message":
#7 Create a new repository in your Github account:
#8 Set the repository name, description and create the repository:
#9 Save the repository "https" address
#10 To link the repository created with your local project folder execute git remote add origin https.....(after origin you must add the address copied in step #9 ):
#11 To synchronize your project execute git push origin master -f:
#12 Back to your Github repository, click Branch button, write gh-pages and click create branch button. This will create a new brach:
13 Click Settings button:
#14 Click Branches, select gh-pages and update:
#15 Click Options scroll down until Github Pages there you will have the link to share your website!:
#16 I had an issue due to Github needs an index.html to work and I had a home.index instead:
#17 I fixed this modifying my project, then I commit the changes with Modifying home.html to index.html as message:
#18 I tried again and bum! there you have your website ready to be shared:
