Here are the step to connect to a new remote respiratory and make your first commit.

Use a terminal to go to the root of your project. For example:

$ cd C:/Users/user/my_project

Then execute the following git commands below:

• git init

• git add README.md

• git commit -m "first commit"

• git branch -M main

• git remote add origin https://github.com/yourrepo.git

• git push -u origin main
