GitHub 仓库创建但无法上传VS的解决方法

Question

I tried uploading a C++ project from Visual Studio 2019 onto my GitHub account.

The repository gets created when I do this however, none of my codes gets uploaded onto the repository.

Only the files ".gitattributes" and ".gitignore" appear in my repository.

Please could I have any suggestions on what I could do to fix this.

Answer 1

Close VS Go to your local repository folder (the solution folder)

This will add all the files and commit them

git add .
git commit -m 'added files'

alternatively you can use "git add ___" to add one file at a time

Make sure you commit the changes and then do

"git push"

Re-open VS and everything should be setup now.

Here are some other instructions I wrote down recently which you may find helpful:

How to create a git repo from an ungitted local project already in development:

Create a empty repo on your repo hosting site

Go to your local project folder in git command line

git init

git add.

git commit -m 'message'

git remote add origin https://yourreposite.com/username/repo

git push -u origin master

Now you can open it in Visual Studio and everything is all setup

Answer 2

I encountered the exact same issue with VS 2022 and a Xamarin.Forms solution - tried several times but only created the repository and the two files mentioned. This answer worked a treat although it would be handy to know why VS isn't working as it should!
