git remote add name url git push name branch   Example   git remote add origin git github com foo bar git git push origin master   See the docs for git push -- you can set a remote as the default remote for a given branch  if you don t  the name origin is special  Just git push alone will do the same as git push origin thisbranch  for whatever branch you re on

What you may want to do is first  on your local machine  make a bare clone of the repository  git clone --bare  path to repo  path to bare repo git    don t forget the  git    Now  archive up the new repo git directory using tar gzip or whatever your favorite archiving tool is and then copy the archive to the server   Unarchive the repo on your server   You ll then need to set up a remote on your local repository   git remote add repo-name user host  path to repo git  this assumes you re using SSH   You will then be able to push to and pull from the remote repo with   git push repo-name branch-name git pull repo-name branch-name

There are many ways to move repositories around  git bundle is a nice way if you have insufficient network availability  Since a Git repository is really just a directory full of files  you can  clone  a repository by making a copy of the  git directory in whatever way suits you best   The most efficient way is to use an external repository somewhere  use GitHub or set up Gitosis   and then git push
