"git remote create repo myreponame" frankly speaking i know that our friends in the linux kernel project never felt the need to create remote repository because they probably rarely need that but i guess their merciful hearts could have some feeling for the rest of us? ``` ## Konstantin Khomoutov, 2016-12-14 06:36 Subject: Re: Creating remote git repository?
