okay... in a nutshell
you can either clone down your empty repo..
and then splatter the stuff in it and commit -a
or...
(I DO THIS)
https://help.github.com/articles/cre...new-repository
mkdir ~/Hello-World (or whatever)
# Creates a directory for your project called "Hello-World" in your user directory
cd ~/Hello-World
# Changes the current working directory to your newly created directory
git init
# Sets up the necessary Git files
# Initialized empty Git repository in /Users/you/Hello-World/.git/
touch README
# Creates a file called "README" in your Hello-World directory
git add README
# Stages your README file, adding it to the list of files to be committed
git commit -m 'first commit'
# Commits your files, adding the message "first commit"
git remote add origin https://github.com/username/Hello-World.git (or whatever)
# Creates a remote named "origin" pointing at your GitHub repository
git push origin master
# Sends your commits in the "master" branch to GitHub
OR fork the other guys and amend it.
Hope that helps
