Setting up your GitHub repository

First, make sure you have Quartz index#🪴 Get Started.

Then, create a new repository on GitHub.com. Do not initialize the new repository with README, license, or gitignore files.

!

At the top of your repository on GitHub.com's Quick Setup page, click the clipboard to copy the remote repository URL.

!

In your terminal of choice, navigate to the root of your Quartz folder. Then, run the following commands, replacing REMOTE-URL with the URL you just copied from the previous step.

# add your repository
git remote add origin REMOTE-URL

# track the main quartz repository for updates
git remote add upstream https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz.git

To verify that you set the remote URL correctly, run the following command.

git remote -v

Then, you can sync the content to upload it to your repository.

npx quartz sync --no-pull

[!hint] If npx quartz sync fails with fatal: --[no-]autostash option is only valid with --rebase, you may have an outdated version of git. Updating git should fix this issue.
