This worked for my GIT version 1 8 4    From the local repository folder  right click and select  Git Commit Tool   There  select the files you want to upload  under  Unstaged Changes  and click  Stage Changed  button   You can initially click on  Rescan  button to check what files are modified and not uploaded yet   Write a Commit Message and click  Commit  button  Now right click in the folder again and select  Git Bash    Type  git push origin master and enter your credentials  Done

You push your local repository to the remote repository using the git push command after first establishing a relationship between the two with the git remote add  alias   url  command   If you visit your Github repository  it will show you the URL to use for pushing   You ll first enter something like   git remote add origin git github com username reponame git   Unless you started by running git clone against the remote repository  in which case this step has been done for you already   And after that  you ll type   git push origin master   After your first push  you can simply type   git push   when you want to update the remote repository in the future

Subversion implicitly has the remote repository associated with it at all times   Git  on the other hand  allows many  remotes   each of which represents a single remote place you can push to or pull from   You need to add a remote for the GitHub repository to your local repository  then use git push   remote  or git pull   remote  to push and pull respectively - or the GUI equivalents   Pro Git discusses remotes here  http   git-scm com book ch2-5 html  The GitHub help also discusses them in a more  task-focused  way here  http   help github com remotes   Once you have associated the two you will be able to push or pull branches
