    I have a remote GitLab repo my-project that contains 2 branches master and dev. And I learn it from GitLab vs GitHub has a directory on my local machine named also my-project that I was developing some code in it and it has more or less the same structure as the remote repo. What I want to do is:

    • initialize the directory as a git repo (which I already did)
    • connect the initialized local repo somehow to the remote one.
    • Then create a branch based on the structure of the master branch of the remote repo (without losing any files on the local repo).
    • finally, push the code in the local repo to the newly created branch in the new repo.

    what I have done so far is:

    cd my-project
    git init
    git fetch
    git checkout -b new_dev_branch
    git add .
    git commit -m "first trial"
    git remote add origin path/to/remote/gitlab/my-project.git
    git push -u origin new_dev_branch
    

    But the problem is that it didn't create the branch with the structure of the master as I wanted in step 3.

    Any ideas?

    @cloudytech147 this seems suspiciously like spam... Is this question somehow Cloudron related? I will delete this topic in a day or two, if I don't see a response.

    @cloudytech147 you can probably try the GitLab forum - https://forum.gitlab.com/ . This forum is for the Cloudron's GitLab package.
