Remote Git repository unreachable in XCode 5

Question

I have created a remote Git repository for a new project. I have added to my remotes and XCode recognizes it. When creating the new project, I checked the box for Source Control > create git repository on: and selected "Add to New Server"

When I enter my login credentials, I get the following message:

The server https://... is unavailable or may not exist. Check the server address, check your network connection, and then try again.

I have verified that my login is correct and the url is definitely valid. What might I be doing wrong?

Thanks!

Was able to solve my issue using the following:

git remote add origin git@github.com:pheepster/<repoName>.git
git push origin master:master

Answer 2

In addition to the two git commands in @Pheepster's answer, I suggest you check you are running the current version of GIT on both the development Mac and Server. Once I had the current version of GIT on both systems the two lines above solved my issue.
