Git is a distributed version control system, which means it does not have to have a central server to connect to to store the repository. As such, it is a lot easier to create a git repository than it is to create a traditional source control repository (such as cvs or svn).
To create an empty git repository in the current directory:
git init
To add files (new or modified) to the list of files to be committed to git:
git add
To write changes to the git repository:
git commit
To create a git repository on a server (to share with others, or as a backup):
git clone --bare localrepository remoterepositoryname.git scp -r remoterepositoryname.git user@host:remoterepositoryname.git
To push a git repository to a server (update the remote repository):
git push ssh://user@host/~user/path/to/repository
To update a local repository from a server:
git pull ssh://user@host/~user/path/to/repository
To clone (download a copy) a git repository:
git clone ssh://user@host/~user/path/to/repository
