GitHub is a web-based version control system and collaboration platform for developers. It is the centre around which all things involving git revolve. GitHub allows software developers and engineers to create remote, public-facing repositories on the cloud for free. Once you’ve set up a repository on GitHub, you can copy it to your device, add and modify files locally, and then “push” your changes back to the repository where your changes are displayed for the public.

In this tutorial, I will explain how we can create a new empty repository in GitHub.

Implementation Steps

Step 1 – Login to GitHub using your username and password.

Step 2 – In the upper-right corner of any page, use the drop-down menu, and select “New repository” or left side of the page, there is a green button “New“.

Step 3 – Type a name for your repository, and an optional description. Here, I have provided below-mentioned information:

Owner – vibssingh
Repository name – Selenium-TestNG
Description – Demo of Selenium with TestNG (optional)

Step 4 – Choose repository visibility.

I’m selecting the “Public” option as it is a free account. You can select the Private option for a paid account (mostly organizations). For more information, see “About repositories.”

Step 5 – You can create a “README“, which is a document describing your project. For more information, see “About READMEs.”

You can create a .gitignore file, which is a set of ignore rules. For more information, see “Ignoring files.“
You can choose to add a software license for your project. For more information, see “Licensing a repository.”
