Timecodes:
so hey guys this is with patel and in
this video i will tell you how you can
post your projects or how you can upload
your projects on github as a repository
so there are basically two ways to
upload your projects in github i will
discuss both in this video but before
starting the video if you are new to
channel please make sure to subscribe to
channel
and if you find this video helpful then
leave a like so let's get start
okay so the first way is very simple
just go to your github account and then
go to your profile and there is a
section for repositories so go to there
and there is a another option for
creating a repository new repository so
click on that and you will find this
interface so here you have to fill out
some information about your repository
so first of all you have to give a name
for your repository so give it any good
name related to your project so i am
giving a name tutorial but the tutorial
name is already taken because i have
already created one depository with this
name so i will choose another name
so after giving a name there is a option
for adding description to your repo but
i am skipping it right now because i am
going to make this wrap up private not a
public but
you can add if you want to add
description
it is good to add description for your
repo so after that you have to select
your repo visibility if you want to make
it public or if you want to make it
private so after choosing the visibility
there is an option for adding a redmi
file adding a git ignore file but i will
discuss these things
in later in this video so right now i'm
just skipping it and i'm creating a
repository so click on create a
repository and your repository will be
created
so as you can see here that our
repository is created and our next step
is how to upload files and folders on
this repository so you can see that
there is option it says uploading an
existing file so just click on that and
you will get this interface so here you
have to upload files and projects by
dragging and dropping them or you can
also upload them by choosing them from
your system but right now i'm just
dropping my one of one of my project
from my desktop so
here you can see it's saying that the
file is empty but there are some folders
and some files on my project so why
github is saying that the file is empty
because github doesn't allow us to
upload the folder which contains so many
files and so many folders
so now you will ask me that
why should you use this method if it
does not allow us to upload the entire
folder which contains so many files and
so many folders so i will tell you one
thing that you can use this method for
uploading a single project which
contains
just two or three files or a small
project or you can use this method for
uploading html css files or you can use
to use this method to upload a single
files so this method is suitable for
uploading a small project so what about
big projects which contains so many
files so many source files so i will
tell you that
we are going to discuss the method
which we are going to use or for
uploading our break projects on github
so this is our first method so let's
move on to our second method which allow
us to upload the big projects which
contains so many files and so many
folders so let's check out that method
so for the second method we need to
download git and install it on our
system so for that just go to any
browser and search for git or git bash
and you will get the first website and
click on that and you have to download
the git which your version supports your
system and after downloading it you have
to click on the install run that exe
file and while installing select the
default settings so it will
automatically select path for gate and
after downloading it let's check if it
installed properly or not so just open
any command line and enter git and if
you get this uh all this data then your
git is downloaded successfully so the
next step is uh open our project with
any command line or with any terminal so
go to your folder and right click on it
and open it with git bash if you have
installed github there will be option
for open with kit dash or you can also
use the vs code i am using vs code
because vs code terminal also works for
this okay so here we have a rapport
which is our root folder and inside that
we have a folder called
sample project so that is our main
folder so i am going into that folder by
entering cd sample project so here we
are into the our pro folder from where
we have to upload all the files and all
the folders okay so right now i am
opening checking the git again so it is
perfectly working so here now we have to
create one repository
so we can push all the things into that
repository so the method is the same
as the last time we created a repo for
uploading the files for with the drag
and drop method so i'm creating one
another repo for right now firstly
okay so let's create one repo here
okay so repository is created right now
and here are the steps given which we
have to follow in order to push all the
files and folders into this repository
so the first command is git init so what
does this command do this command
actually creates one folder named dot
date into the directory in which we run
this commands if i will run this command
in sample project so it will create one
folder name dot git in the sample
project and the folder will be hidden so
you have to enable uh show hidden files
into your system so make sure you have
done this else you cannot
see that folder okay so i have run this
command and you can i have run this
command and you can see that the all
files name are in the green color and
you can see the folder here dot gate
okay so i will delete it now and i will
show you live how this folder is created
so i will snap left this
tab and i will open the vs code in the
right side and let's run this command
again so let's run git init and you can
see that and you will see that the
folder will be created here okay so our
folder is right there and what does this
folder do is this folder will track down
all the changes which are happening into
your project so if you delete any file
if you add any file if you make changes
in any file that this folder will track
down and you will be
committing all the changes into the next
commit of your repository okay so this
is the
work this is the use of dot grip folder
okay so the next step is okay so you can
use git status command for checking the
status of your repository so if you use
this command and you get the file names
in a red color then these files are not
added to your repo yet so if you want to
add those files then you can add bias
added file single by single or you can
add all the files at a single time
okay so if you want to add any single
file then you can use command git add
and the file name uh so i right now i'm
adding manage.py file so i will use the
command git add and the manage.py and i
will hit the enter and the magic.py file
will be added to my repository and if we
want to add all the files at one time
then we have to enter the command git
add and the dot so the dot will take all
the files and added to the repository at
one time okay so i will add my all the
files into repository okay so there are
basically three stages first is adding
second is committing and third is
pushing so first you add then you give a
commit and then you commit it and after
in the last you push all the changes to
your repository okay so right now i have
added now i will commit okay so there
are a command for commit is a hit commit
minus m or hyphen and then you will
enter your commit name in inverted
double inverted comma so whatever name
you want to give to your commit you can
give like initial commit first commit
your project name whatever you want to
give
you are free to give a name so right now
i'm just giving name first commit or
initial commit so just give a name to
your commit and if we make any changes
in future then we can give it a second
commit third commit or we can give a
name related to the changes also so it's
depend on you whatever name you want to
give you can give to it okay so after
committing name
what we have to do is we have to select
the branch okay so if we do not select a
branch if you do not give a name to any
branch so it will defaultly select the
master branch okay so here that is a
command
for creating a main branch but i'm not
creating it i am skipping it you can
skip that step and if you don't create
any branch then remember that there is a
master branch which is default branch
okay so after adding a branch or after
skipping it there is an option
and connect your local dot git folder to
your repository so there is a
great remote and add and there is a link
okay so copy that whole command and
paste it on your terminal and it will
connect your local folder to your
repository so it will help you to push
all the changes which you have committed
till now okay so i will use i will copy
this command i will copy that command
and paste in my terminal
so our repository is connected right now
and right now we have to do our last
step and now we have to use our last
command git push hyphen u
origin and
our branch is master because we haven't
selected any branch so we have to use
the name master and i will hit enter and
my all the files will be posted to the
my repository so let me go to the
browser and let me refresh this and you
can see that my all the folders and the
files are here so i have successfully
committed my first commit and i have
successfully posted my all the files to
my repository okay i have successfully
uploaded my files to the github and now
i will show you
what will happen if i will do some
changes to my project okay so let's do
it so i am creating one function in
views dot py file so
i'm just creating one random function so
you can see that there is a capital m
written on the right side of the my name
of my my file name okay so you can see
that there's a capital m
at the right side of the views.py so why
there is a capital m because it shows
that you have made some changes into
your project after
your last commit okay so whenever you
have done your last commit you have made
some changes okay so it shows that you
have to commit these changes also to
your repositories so
till i will not commit this changes
till then it will show there okay so i
will show you that how to make changes
into your current repository or your
existing repository okay so
i have created this function and for now
i don't have to repeat all the procedure
again i just have to use three command
for make to make changes including my
current existing repositories i have
discussed this before there are
basically three stages first is adding
second is committing and third is
pushing so we are following the same
three stages here so first we will add
our changes to our repo so i will use
git add dot and after that i will given
i will commit it so i will give just to
give a name second commit because i am
doing this change the second time
because the first is our original commit
and the second is our change okay so i
am just giving the name second and after
that i will just push it so the push
command is very easy git dot push
okay so let me go to my repository into
my browser and let me check that our
changes are happened there or not okay
so you can see that that is showing our
second commit into your project and
inside that project we have our
reviews.file so we can see that the
changes are done here so this is how you
can upload your files and project into
the github so here i have shown two
methods whichever you want to use you
can use and if you enjoy this video then
