I tried to use git add eu and now I'm getting the following error:
fatal: pathspec 'eu' did not match any files
How would I upload my existing Maven project to Github? I've tried many things but couldn't manage to upload it so far.
Try to include the correct path of your file like this : git add pathToYourFile.extension. If you would like to add all files so use
git add .
Try using the command git add . to stage your whole project.
To add your entire project, do what the other commenters have suggested.
git add .
git commit -m "Your message."
To add the project to Github, you first need to create a repository in Github, and then add that newly created repo's URL as a remote on your computer. Then push it up. They give instructions after you create your repository.
Note that you'll need to manually push up changes in the future with git push, unless you have a post commit hook or something set up to automate it.

I have files in repository. I want them to be grouped inside a folder. How can I do this?
It seems that I need to add new file if I want to create a folder.
From how you worded your question, it seems like you're trying to work on github directly from the website.
The usual way github works is:
if you have a repo on github and you want to modify it, first 'clone' the repo into your local computer,
use these instructions https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/cloning-a-repository
then just change folder structure like you would normally on File Explorer (windows) or Finder (mac),
then follow the commit instructions and 'push' up your changes to github
use these instructions
check status of your recent changes:
git status
add the files that you want to include in the commit
git add nameOfFile
check status and the file you want to include should now be green
git status
use this to send to github
git push

I have been searching and I found git commands to change the repository but I'm new on github and I don't know how to make that from eclipse, everytime I push I make the changes on the master branch instead of the default main, when I try to push the main it says non fast forward and I can't do it, thanks.
Select Team > Advanced > Rename Branch
Rename local as main
Rename remote to main
when you first commit your project in eclipse and then you click on push
after filling the information of the repository you get this
you will write main here insted of master and your project will be pushed directly to the default main
my solution is only when you first upload your project to GitHub
I was trying to upload one of my Jupyter Notebook files on GitHub, but it's taking forever to upload.
File size is also not that big. It's about 17KB. Also getting problem for this notebook only.
Here's the screen shot.
Any kind of help or suggestions are highly appreciated.
Try using Git Bash to push your code/make changes instead of uploading files directly on GitHub (it is less prone to errors and is quite comfortable at times - takes less time as well!), for doing so, you may follow the below-given steps:
Download and install the latest version of Git Bash from here - https://git-scm.com/
Right-click on any desired location on your system.
Click “Git Bash Here”.
git config --global user.name “your name”
git config --global user.email “your email”
Go back to your GitHub account – open your project – click on “clone” – copy HTTPS
link.
git clone PASTE HTTPS LINK.
Clone of your GitHub project will be created on your computer location.
Open the folder and paste your content.
Make sure content is not empty
Right-click inside the cloned folder where you have pasted your content.
Click “Git Bash Here” again.
You will find (master) appearing after your location address.
git add .
Try git status to check if all your changes are marked in green.
git commit --m “Some message”
git push origin master
Hope this helps! Good luck!
You could try and:
clone the repository, add the file locally, commit and push
check on github.com if your remote repository has a .gitattributes file with lfs directives in it.
Maybe that repository, managed by LFS, has reached some upload limit which would prevent any new upload.
see the Git Ignore option in the below image.What I have to choose, I am creating an ionic-framework repository.

.gitignore is a file which, Git uses to determine which files and directories to ignore, before you make a commit. These files/directories will not be pushed into the repository.
If you have any files or directories that don't need to be pushed into the repository, then you can include them. (a simple example : log files)
If there is no ionic option, you can ignore it, and create it locally on your repo, then push it back to your GitHub repo.
To create it, see https://www.gitignore.io/api/ionic3
It does generate an Ionic .gitignore for you.
You may classify my question to the layman's level, but I am using Git for the first time (til now I used TortoiseSVN) and I am not sure how I can check out an existing project from a server, so as to have it available on my local machine in a folder. I have installed Git Bash. Should I run it (Gui), select New Archiv and then specify the path of the project in the server? Is there a better Git framework to install, which is appropriate to make the same task more easily?
I would appreciate also some screenshots if needed in the answers.
Update: I have installed also TortoiseGit. I want to create a new clone by a right click in a directory, but the new Clone is not available after the right click. Does it need additional configuration? If no, what should I do from TortoiseGit to checkout an existing project?
I'd usually recommend learning git from command line. But if you are already familiar with TortoiseSVN then TortoiseGIT is a good tool for you.
Also, I think you should learn git very well. I can recommend the book Pro Git.
To "check out" a git repository is called clone in the git world (you will get a whole copy of the server repository). This can be done either from command line or TortoiseGIT.
git bash:
$ cd /path/to/my/projects
$ git clone url-to-server-repo
Update:
Since you get the "normal" TortoiseGit menu (without clone option), it seems you already have a local git repository. You probably created an empty git repository by mistake. Look for a hidden directory .git in the project directory or any parent directory.
right click on the folder (not right click on nothing in the folder, the icon of the folder you want to clone INTO from the parent directory) and select clone from the menu.
FYI:
clone = create a copy of a repository.
checkout = change the current state of an existing repo to a saved state.
so if you have a repo w/ 3 commits (A,B,C) when you clone the repo you will be at the most current state (C). if you want to see the previous state of the repo you would git checkout B. if you want to see the repo's initial state you would git checkout A
hope that helps.
