Using git-hub

Ok so I got my Git-Hub account set up and created a repository for my Xmms2 client / skin, I am not sure about how I should set out the files, at the moment I just have them all in a directory together (there are only 6 of them) should I set up a src folder and put them all in there or is there another way I should set it up?
All suggestions welcome as I haven't used it before

Re: Using git-hub

I have my repo set up, I just haven't uploaded the files yet, and wondered if I should just upload them into the main folder or put them into a src folder or something...

Re: Using git-hub

You will have to keep your source files in some local foder, for ex. 'src' . You will proceed all git operations in the 'src' directory. We recommend to install and run Git GUI utilities:
$ sudo apt-get install gitk git-gui
$ cd src
$ gitk
If you will need some help on this you are welcome to ask here.

Re: Using git-hub

Thanks, I use pycharm for my coding and that takes care of git for me, although I have done all my work "off-line" so far so I haven't used it in a working capacity until now, and I'm sure to have other queries so thank you for your help
