How to Set Up Xcode with Remote Git Repository

so I just installed a new remote git repository on one of our servers and want to move our old projects there. Our existing projects have local git repositories, and we can add repos from the server, but how do we move our existing projects onto the server?

Any ideas?

After creating your Xcode project, cd to that directory
and make sure you are on the master branch
Type: 

git remote add origin <URL-of-your-GitHub-repository>
git pull
git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/master master
git merge
git commit -m "Merging with remote”
git push

Now your new project has been pushed to the remote GitHub directory.

You would do these steps:

Make the individual repositories on the server.

git clone --bare nameofrepo

On the actual repo, add the remote to the repository from which you want to send up work:

git remote add origin <url to your remote>

Now push your branch for your work:

git push origin master

Repeat for any other branches you want to have pushed to the central repo.

The URL in the first command can also be a regular file path. Most solutions, however are through an SSH connection.
