My private adversaria

Try git on Debian wheezy

I would like to use git for my private text files. At first, I use github but this permits only public access if using free account. But, I want to use git in secret. So, I created an account for Bitbucket | The Git solution for professional teams. This service permits private account even if using free accounts. And I installed gitg as a desktop git client. Apps/Gitg - GNOME Wiki! is a public site of gitg.

Created git account for remote I am going to use as master repository and installed git client, but I can't create remote repository via gitg. Can gitg create a git repository? Or can gitg access only git repositories already exists? In my try, I believe gitg can't create remote repository. I have no idea that gitg can commit remote repositories directly.

Here is just my memo of the procedure how to open a git repository via gitg, this procedure doesn't include commit.

  1. Login bitbucket.org and open repository
  2. Copy git file URL, this URL is in the textbox at the right side top
  3. Open terminal
  4. Create directory of git workspace
  5. cd git workspace
  6. git clone https://$STEP_2_URL
  7. Enter password
  8. Launch gitg
  9. Open the directory of git workspace

The command "git push" at the local git repository can push the local commit already done to remote repository.
