如何将新代码推送到现有仓库？ （作为一个新的分支）

Question

• I have an existing repo in gitlab with multiple branches
• I did some work outside of that repo which I didn't mean to be part of it
• I changed my mind and I want to push the new code, which is not a git repository, as a new branch of the existing repo

How do I do that?

Answer 1

The question's a bit vague but something like this should work (using Bash):

1. Create a new branch in your existing repo

   git checkout -b $new_branch

2. Copy/move the new code into the repo

   cp $new_code.

3. Commit and push

   git commit -am "Create $new_branch from external work in $new_code" git push -u origin $new_branch
