We'll create a new Git repository for our new code base as, although some of the setup will be similar, our new project should be completely unrelated to our first one. If you need more help with this step, head back to Chapter 1, Hello, World!, and follow the detailed instructions in the Installing and using Git section. If you feel confident, check whether you can do this just with the following summary:
Head over to the website for Bitbucket, GitHub, or whichever hosting platform you used for the first project. Log in and create a new repository
Name your repository
crimemap
and take note of the URL you're givenOn your local machine, fire up a terminal and run the following commands:
mkdir crimemap cd crimemap git init git remote add origin <git repository URL>
We'll leave this repository empty for now as we need to set up a database on our VPS. Once we have the database installed, we'll come back here to set up our Flask project.
