Question

I am trying to upload a Ruby app to Heroku. I start with git init and then I type git add . and then I use git commit -m initial commit. <

Answer 1

Please take note that in windows, it is very important that the git commit -m "initial commit" has the initial commit texts in double quotes. Single quotes will throw a path spec error.
