How-To create a GIT repository in cPanel

Introduction

cPanel allows you to create GIT repositories that are hosted locally on the cPanel server.

Procedure

To create a new repository, perform the following steps:

1. Use SSH to log in to your cPanel account on the command line.

2. To navigate to the directory that will contain your repository, run the following command:

   cd ~/Project/example

   Note:

   To create a new directory to store your repository, run the following command and then navigate to that directory:

   mkdir -p ~/Project/example

    

3. To initialize the directory as a Git repository, run the following command:

   git init
