如何将存储库直接上传到 GitHub 组织？

Question

I am unsure whether I've followed this process correctly. I created a project repository on my IDE PyCharm, and tried to upload into a specific GitHub organization that I'm in. On Pycharm, it gives me the option of sharing the code to GitHub. When I do this, it creates a public repository in my gitHub account but not directly in the organization; therefore, I have to clone that one and import it separately in the organization. Is this correct process or is there a way I can import it directly in the organization from my IDE? Do people generally create a repository and then upload/commit files separately from their IDE or am I taking the longer route?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Answer 1

The easy way to do this using only the GUI/IDE:

1. Create a project in PyCharm named your-project

2. Go to your GitHub organization page and click New and name the repo your-project

3. In PyCharm, under the "Git" menu click "Manage Remotes" instead of clicking "GitHub"

4. In the popup, click "+" and add https://github.com/organization/your-project.git

The default PyCharm "push" will now upload to your GitHub organization's repo.

Answer 2

I found a workaround similar to that proposed by @Nathan, though I'm not sure it's the cleanest way (any suggestion to improve is welcome):

1. I created a new repository on github with the same name of my local PyCharm project (let's say it's called my_pycharm_project )
2. Following this guide , from the Terminal inside PyCharm I typed:

$ git remote add origin https://github.com/organization/my_pycharm_project.git

3. This works, but then when I push files from local to GitHub inside PyCharm, they are pushed into a master branch and not into the main branch
4. To overcome this, I then followed this answer , which basically says to: 1) change default branch from main to master (you can do this directly from GitHub) and 2) delete the main branch

Of course it would be cleaner to push to the main branch, but I didn't find a way to do this.
