copied!<p>There is an <a href="https://github.com/defunkt/github-gem" rel="noreferrer">official github gem</a> which, I think, does this. I'll try to add more information as I learn, but I'm only just now discovering this gem, so I don't know much yet.</p> <p>UPDATE: After setting my API key, I am able to create a new repo on github via the <code>create</code> command, however I am not able to use the <code>create-from-local</code> command, which is supposed to take the current local repo and make a corresponding remote out on github.</p> <pre><code>$ gh create-from-local => error creating repository </code></pre> <p>If anyone has some insight on this, I'd love to know what I'm doing wrong. There's already an <a href="https://github.com/defunkt/github-gem/issuesearch?state=open&q=create#issue/30" rel="noreferrer">issue filed</a>.</p> <p>UPDATE: I did eventually get this to work. I'm not exactly sure how to re-produce the issue, but I just started from scratch (deleted the .git folder)</p> <pre><code>git init git add .emacs git commit -a -m "adding emacs" </code></pre> <p>Now this line will create the remote repo and even push to it, but unfortunately I don't think I can specify the name of the repo I'd like. I wanted it to be called "dotfiles" out on github, but the gh gem just used the name of the current folder, which was "jason" since I was in my home folder. (I added <a href="https://github.com/defunkt/github-gem/issues/#issue/50" rel="noreferrer">a ticket</a> asking for the desired behavior)</p> <pre><code>gh create-from-local </code></pre> <p>This command, on the other hand, does accept an argument to specify the name of the remote repo, but it's intended for starting a new project from scratch, i.e. after you call this command, you get a new remote repo that's tracking a local repo in a newly-created subfolder relative to your current position, both with the name specified as the argument.</p> <pre><code>gh create dotfiles </code></pre>
