Receiving "fatal: Not a git repository" when attempting to remote add a Git repo
git
Solution
Did you init a local Git repository, into which this remote is supposed to be added?
Does your local directory have a `.git` folder?
Try `git init`.
Problem
I am following this tutorial. Everything works fine until I run this on my local machine (after replacing the `$VARIABLE`s with their actual values): ``` git remote add nfsn ssh://$USERNAME@$SERVER/home/private/git/$REPONAME.git ``` I receive the following error message: fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git How do I get past this step?
