Question

I am trying to push android project to private empty repo with android studio . But I cannot find simple solution. How can I do this ?

Answer 1

If you are pushing to a private repo in a local location ie. a private server.:

• Assuming you have set up local git repository, cd into the remote location and clone your local repository with git clone 'path to local repo'

• cloning will set the local repo as a remote, so we have to remove that with git remote remove origin

• make the remote repo bare with git config --bool core.bare true

• Then in your local repository add the remote with git remote add origin 'location to remote git repo'

Now you should be able to push to remote in Android studio.
