To create a repository, click the plus
icon next to your profile picture and
0:00
click New Repository.
0:05
For this example we'll name
our repository Tree House.
0:09
We'll write a short description,
0:15
Projects from my Treehouse Coursework.
0:20
Choose public,
this means anyone can see this repository.
0:25
If you want to work in private,
0:29
you can do that, however you'd
have to upgrade to a paid plan.
0:30
Since we wanna share our work and
0:34
fill out our GitHub profile,
we want our work public.
0:35
Do not select initialize this repository
with a README since we'll be adding
0:39
a project we already have.
0:43
If I were to select this and then try and
0:45
push up a Git repository from our
local computer, we'd have a conflict.
0:47
We don't want that, but we will review
how to fix conflicts later in stage two.
0:50
We have the option to add a .gitignore
file or a license file, but
0:55
we'll skip that for now.
1:00
And click Create repository.
1:02
Boom!
1:08
You have a GitHub repository.
1:09
In the next stage, we'll connect a local
project with our GitHub repository and
1:10
dive deeper into the key GitHub features.
