How to store your site in Git?
About
This page will show you how to store your site as combo site in a remote Git repository.
Steps
Create a remote Git Repository
We will be using GitHub as example, but you can use any Git Repository Provider such as Gogs, GitLab or Gitea.
For GitHub, follow this article to create your new repository.
Create a local Git Repository
In the directory that was used with the docker command, initialize a Git repository
cd /tmp/site-combo-starter
# Init (ie create ) a local repo
git init
- Rename the master branch to main
git branch -M main
Add the Git remote
- Add the URL of your repository as origin
git remote add origin https://github.com/ComboStrap/site-starter.git
Check the untracked files
git status
On branch main
No commits yet
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
.gitattributes
.gitignore
README.md
conf/
data/
docs/
lib/
robots.txt
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
Add the combo site files
Add them all
git add .
Create your first commit
- Create a commit
git commit -m "First commit"
Push them to your remote repository
- Push
git push -u origin main
# enter your credentials
# or use SSH Keys (https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh)
