Wondering if I should add the blow-by-blow?
Some key things with my workflow so far was to first create the new repository on github first without specifying a README.md, License, or description. This is all before my initial commit from my command line.
Then realized I had to have a Github generated token as they don't accept passwords anymore! And that my login was my email not the name of my github - Duh!
So now I have initial public respositories for: minlex and dlx repository at https://github.com/RichardGoodrich
JUST WORN OUT figuring this stuff out!
