Your to-do

Connect and push

Do each one yourself, then tap it to tick it off. The ticks are only a checklist for you: they are not marked or scored.

Copy the repo URL from GitHub. HTTPS is fine for most builders.
Add GitHub as your remote named origin.
Rename your branch to main if needed.
Push your commits and set the upstream link.
Refresh GitHub and check that your files appear.

Common mistake

Common push problems

If Git says remote origin already exists, your project is already connected to a remote. Check it before changing anything.

If GitHub asks for login, use your normal GitHub authentication flow. Do not paste passwords into random terminals or share tokens in screenshots.

git remote -v

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/YOUR-REPO.git
