Gith in Two Minutes

If you have installed Git and know roughly how git works and just want the commands, here is the workflow:

# Tell Git who you are (only done once)
git config --global user.name "your name"
git config --global user.email "your.name@domain.com"

# Initialise a local repository
git init

# Tell Git which files you want to make part of the next commit
git add filename   ; to add a specific file
git add .          ; to add everything

# Commit those files into a new version 
git commit -m "meaningful commit message"

# Push your code to a remote repository
git remote add repo-name git@github.com:github-account/repo-name.git
git push repo-name master

See my Git cheet sheet for the most common commands for using Git
