Git: How to start a new rails project and put it on GitHub
Create a new Rails project:
$> rails new <project_name>
Put your rails project under local version control:
$> cd$> git init .
Edit the .gitignore file:
.bundle db/*.sqlite3 log/*.log tmp/**/* doc/api doc/app *.swp *~ .project webrat.log
Commit:
$> git add . $> git commit -am "Initial commit"
Go to GitHub and create a new project
Add your github master:
$> git remote add origin git@github.com:<your_github_username>/<project_name>.git
$> git push -u origin master
That's it!
After that, a regular commit looks like that:
$> git add . $> git commit -am "Your commit message"
Pushing to GitHub:
$> git push
