Part A

Log into your server

ssh user@youripaddress

OR

ssh user@mydomain.com

 Enter nginx server websites folder (this where your projects running live under nginx are stored)

cd /var/www/html

List the available projects

ls 

Enter the desired project

cd project-1

Check if git is installed and if it is not install it (directions in the link below)

git --version

https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/install-git  

Check the git status of the current project and commit if there any uncommitted changes otherwise it will display ("nothing to commit or working tree clean")

git status 

Commit if there any changes and check the status again

git commit -m "saving unsaved changes..."

git status

Part B

Log into  Bit bucket

Setup SSH Keys in your bit bucket account (Follow the link bellow on how to setup ssh,

Please not that the first steps are done in your server so you just have to continue from where you left off)

https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/set-up-an-ssh-key-728138079.html 

Create  a repository, not a project (though normally repositories are created under projects so you may what to have a project at least - just enter the name of the repository and leave the rest the way it is)

Connect your local project to your new remote repository

git remote add origin "<repository ssh url>"

git push -u origin master

Verify if your project has been sent to the remote repository you just created

Please let me know if you find any challenges

Thank you :)
