git add README.md
Step 4 : # take a snapshot of the staging area
git commit -m “add my readme file to initial commit”
Step 5 : # provide the path for the repository you created on github

It will show you all modified file and new file in working tree
“modified: file path”
Untracked files: that are not tracked by Git
For adding Untracked files
git add<file_path 1>
after adding file you need to commit
git commit -m “< your message>”
For committing only modified file
git commit -m “<your message>” <file_path 1> <file_path2>
Pushing code to git
git push <origin> <branch_name>
# git reset –hard : To reset modified changes in git folder
Now check the github page and refresh the content, we can see the edited local text will be updated
