无法将原点添加到新的git存储库

Question

I have created a git repository and want to add some code files to it. I'm using git bash of Windows version. I ran these lines

    git init

    git status

This showed all files as none of them were tracked. Then

    git add .
    git commit "my_commit"

    git remote add origin https://github.com/userName/FileName.git

By running this command, got the following error

    bash: $'\302\226git': command not found

I have checked the path by running in cmd

    git --version

That resulted:

    git version 2.20.1.windows.1

Answer 1

You have a strange character between the command prompt and the git command. Remove it either moving the cursor to the g of git and hitting backspace several times, or yo can also:

1. Activate vi mode (supposing you are working with git bash ): set -o vi
2. Once you have your command on screen, press Esc and the v key. A vi screen will open letting you edit the command.
3. Edit the command removing this character(s) and save with :wq . The command should execute normally.
