title: Setting up your GitHub repository
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
First, make sure you have Quartz [[index#🪴 Get Started|cloned and setup locally]].
|
||
|
||
Then, create a new repository on GitHub.com. Do **not** initialize the new repository with `README`, license, or `gitignore` files.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
At the top of your repository on GitHub.com's Quick Setup page, click the clipboard to copy the remote repository URL.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
In your terminal of choice, navigate to the root of your Quartz folder. Then, run the following commands, replacing `REMOTE-URL` with the URL you just copied from the previous step.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# list all the repositories that are tracked
|
||
git remote -v
|
||
|
||
# if the origin doesn't match your own repository, set your repository as the origin
|
||
git remote set-url origin REMOTE-URL
|
||
|
||
# if you don't have upstream as a remote, add it so updates work
|
||
git remote add upstream https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz.git
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Then, you can sync the content to upload it to your repository. This is a helper command that will do the initial push of your content to your repository.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npx quartz sync --no-pull
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> [!warning]- `fatal: --[no-]autostash option is only valid with --rebase`
|
||
> You may have an outdated version of `git`. Updating `git` should fix this issue.
|
||
|
||
> [!warning]- `fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly`
|
||
> It might be due to Git's default buffer size. You can fix it by increasing the buffer with this command:
|
||
>
|
||
> ```bash
|
||
> git config http.postBuffer 524288000
|
||
> ```
|
||
|
||
In future updates, you can simply run `npx quartz sync` every time you want to push updates to your repository.
|
||
|
||
> [!hint] Flags and options
|
||
> For full help options, you can run `npx quartz sync --help`.
|
||
>
|
||
> Most of these have sensible defaults but you can override them if you have a custom setup:
|
||
>
|
||
> - `-d` or `--directory`: the content folder. This is normally just `content`
|
||
> - `-v` or `--verbose`: print out extra logging information
|
||
> - `--commit` or `--no-commit`: whether to make a `git` commit for your changes
|
||
> - `--push` or `--no-push`: whether to push updates to your GitHub fork of Quartz
|
||
> - `--pull` or `--no-pull`: whether to try and pull in any updates from your GitHub fork (i.e. from other devices) before pushing
