GITHUB help -- pls - mepyyeti - Mar-17-2018
This board seemed the appropriate place to post this.
I figured to throw up some of (working) python script on github (git version 2.14 on my linux). I set up an acct AND base repository (just the obligatory readme.md). I followed the instructions on lifehacker github installer guide
On Github if I click README.md, its text is foo. Obviously something went thru but I'm confused....
please help.

It looks like your local is not up to date with the repo. Did you change something on the site? You dont add or edit files on the site. You add or edit them on your computer and then push the changes to the repo on the site. You need to do a git pull to update your local of whatever is on the repo that is not in your local. then change your local, then push

idk what
local means . All I've done on the site is 1) make new PUBLIC repo 2) initialize it with a Readme file.

Local is your computer. Don't inIt the read me on the site but through the terminal
RE: GITHUB help -- pls - metulburr - Mar-17-2018
The only thing you do on the site with a browser is create the repo....nothing else

That's what I figured. It seems 2.14, which i have, is the latest stable version
EDIT: apparently I needed to update to 2.16 Seems to work now...
