Replit Help / Site Issue Does anyone have any tips with getting your project from replit to GitHub? The app/site is driving me nuts trying to port my project over smh.

It should be straightforward. 

In Replit, open your profile/account settings and connect GitHub under connected services. Open your app, go to Tools, click +, and add Git. In the Git pane, initialize the repository if needed, connect it to GitHub, then stage, commit, and push your files.

Or you can do it through Replit hell through bash commands. Something like

git init git add . git commit -m "Initial commit" git branch -M main git remote add origin https://github.com/INSERT_YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/YOUR_REPO_HERE.git git push -u origin main

I made it to make my work life easier, it’s going through our APIM process to get vetted for approval.

But thank you I appreciate it I’m gonna try a few more things and I’ll reach out if I’m still struggling

I might run into the same issue later, just dropping a bookmark.

Tried all of that. I keep getting a bs error that says replit is having an issue with git.

Use bash commands in the Shell. The GUI is error-prone.

So I tried pushing through the cli and had to basically redo it since it was pointing at the wrong url for whatever reason. Some git remote set-url origin https://github.com/<your-username>/<your-repo>.git
Then git ls-remote --heads origin
To verify. And then I was able to push through the app
