Need help on git pushing a C# project

When I first uploaded my project on github, I've done it using the website's file adding. It seemed pretty dumb and tedious to select all the files one by one, so I wish to upload the whole project folder this time, thanks for your help. Existing project that I wish to update: https://github.com/TheHyper-Dev/Call-of-Duty-Movement-in-Godot-4

what do you need help with? do you have a local git repo or is the only git involved the repo on github?

I have a project on my PC that I've newly worked a lot on, now I want to upload it and overwrite the existing github project

git init initializes the repository dotnet new gitignore adds a .gitignore file git add . starts tracking all files git commit -m "[message]" creates a commit git remote add origin [url] adds a remote repository git push -u origin main first push, sets the remote as upstream git push all pushes after that can be just this Git cheat sheet

ah great, thanks, one more thing I gotta have a godot 4 gitignore file don't know how to do that through code

# Godot 4+ specific ignores
.godot/

# Godot-specific ignores
.import/
export.cfg
export_presets.cfg

# Imported translations (automatically generated from CSV files)
*.translation

# Mono-specific ignores
.mono/
data_*/
mono_crash.*.json

# Godot 4+ specific ignores
.godot/

# Godot-specific ignores
.import/
export.cfg
export_presets.cfg

# Imported translations (automatically generated from CSV files)
*.translation

# Mono-specific ignores
.mono/
data_*/
mono_crash.*.json

this is the gitignore

Yeah, seems fine

I got no idea how to make this on cmd.exe I assume this replaces the "dotnet new gitignore"

Angius•6mo ago

There usually is only one gitignore, yes Why would you want to... dunno, create this specific gitignore via the command line? Just open the file and add the lines you need

The Hyper•6mo ago

cause there's a folder with tons of unnecessary files related to the Godot game engine

Jimmacle•6mo ago

via the command line

you don't need to make a .gitignore through code, it's just a text file also, since you already have a version on github those instructions from modix aren't going to work exactly right if you care about the version history on github you'll need to clone it, replace the contents with your current version, then make a new commit otherwise just follow modix instructions and add -f to the push to overwrite anything that's on github
