How to push local Git repo to newly created Google Code project?

I have a local git repo created by Qt Creator during the New Project Wizard. I've made many commits there. I have created a new Google Code project only now. What is the best way to sync the remote repo to my local one?

You can see an example at this article "Setting up Google Code with Git" from AlBlue’s Blog:

$ cd /path/to/existing/local/repo
$ git remote add googlecode https://project.googlecode.com/git
$ git push googlecode master:master

See git remote command: if you have an existing remote (google code) repo ready, you can add its address to your local repo and start pushing (provided you did setup correctly your ~/.netrc file as described in the article, or your %HOME%\_netrc file for windows: see "Git - How to use .netrc file on windows to save user and password" for more).

Once you have done a local commit, you can push the master branch (see "Push origin master error on new repository"), and from there just git push googlecode.
If your remote is called 'origin', then after the first push, you will be able to just do 'git push' for the future pushes.
