Git repository for dotfiles...

[Scott Vargovich]

Hi there,

I'm trying to set up a repo for the hidden config files because I distro hop a good bit and spend a lot of time setting dotfiles up after each install.

I'm following this tutorial:  https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/dotfiles

When I get to the 'config push' command, I get this error:

<cli output>
fatal: No configured push destination.
Either specify the URL from the command-line or configure a remote repository using

    git remote add <name> <url>

and then push using the remote name

    git push <name>

</cli output>

I'm using zsh as my shell and have substituted zshrc for bashrc and .zshrc for .bashrc.  I'm not sure why I'm getting this error.  Help please!

Assumptions:

1. you are working of "master" branch

2. you are using the default "origin"

Then

git remote add origin <remote_url>

Then to push, use

git push -u origin master

Where the -u flag informs that it is an up-stream branch.

Other things to check:

Have you SSH key correctly defined?

Can you pull from remote:

git pull <remote_url> ~/tmp/delete_me_later

Do you have a remote git repository to use?

You could use a public server like gitlab or bitbucket to create a remote repository that you can name as origin.
