# Git howtos

Create a new remote repo

git remote add origin /path/to/repo.git

On my local machine where it's all file paths, I've also needed to explicitly create the repo dir

#create repo dir
mkdir /path/to/repo.git
cd /path/to/repo.git

# init the repo
git init --bare

NOTE: if you've just created a remote repo, git push origin will fail with an ugly message if your local repo doesn't have anything checked in yet.
