Open your terminal and browse to the folder where you want to create your project.

Create a folder named super-git and create the following directory inside it:

$ mkdir super-git
$ cd super-git

To make this folder a Git project, we need to tell Git to monitor this folder. We do this by typing the following command:

$ git init

The following screenshot shows you the output for this command:

Let's create one file to add to the repository. We name it README.md:

$ echo "HELLO README" > README.md	

Now, we will add this new file to Git. This is also known as staging the files:

$ git add README.md

Commit the file...
