Developers , those want to use git can map linux virtual machine to github. In this way dev can port the code to github. Its easy to maintain the repository as well.

1. Create a account on github.com
2. After creating the account ,create a repository for yourself.
3. SSH to your linux box and generate rsa key
   • ssh-keygen -t rsa -C “<emailid>
     copy the public key from .ssh/<>.pub to git
4. Copy the public key to github
