how to set up a github repo for my project

I am new to Github and want to setup a account for my project that I will be writing it in Ruby on Rails. I am using Virtual Box and set my VM OS on Ubuntu. I have created a Github account and a new Repo for my project test. These are the steps I went through so far:

    cd test
    git config --global user.name ’My Name’
    git config --global user.email ’Myemailaddress’
    git init
    touch README
    add README
    git remote add origin [email protected]:myusername/myreponame.git
    git push origin master

till these steps everything is fine and then I created my app with

    rails new test -T

Now after this step I am really not sure what to do next. Should I add all my files and directories to Github Repo or only those that I am going to modify. And what is the git syntax to add all files and directories together? How to commit and save the commit? I really appreciate any suggestion...

just do it in your terminal/comment prompt 

~/.ssh
    ls
    ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "your register mail-id"
    ls
    vim id_rsa.pub

copy the manually keys 4 line and paste it in git Account settings--> ssh key--> add key

git config --global user.name "your register Name"
    git config --global user.email "your register mail-id"

    mkdir ~/YourFolderName
    cd ~/YourFolderName

    git init

select your user name in that you created repository
from that select currently upload repository and
select from [email protected]:registerName/ repository_name.git

    git clone [email protected]:registerName/repository_name.git

    git add *
    cd repository_name

    git add *
    git commit -m "repository_name"
    git push origin master


    cd
    cd ~/.ssh

Now, import your project into GIT, like so:

git add .
git commit

http://www.manniwood.com/starting_a_project_with_git.html

You may want to push your commits to github as well: 

git push

But, as noted above, you're better off getting through a tutorial: in order to be able to benefit from git, you need to understand what you're doing, and simple answers like "do X" are not of much help here.

My favourite is Pro Git— you'll need to work through it from start to 2.5 Git Basics - Working with Remotes at least.
