Answer 1

This may help with Bitbucket. If you create a new repository that includes any templates, it may be problematic in Android Studio if you're less familiar with git. Be sure to select "No" for option "Include a README?". Here's what it looks like at the time of this post:

From the comments:

Parent directory has common git directory

That's the problem. You need to create your new project in a directory that does not already have a .git directory. This .git directory stores all of the information for a repository. Each repo must have an independent .git directory. So create a new Android Studio project in a different folder. Then cd to that directory and run git init from the command line.

I have encountered a similar problem and found that the best solution is as follows:

1-Create the repo on the bitbucket.

2-Upload your android project to bitbucket using git extensions (very nice program to dealing with any git host).

3-Now open the project using android studio and it will be automatically set with the VCS and now you could easily push and pull and do any git stuff from inside android studio
