git config user.name "Phong Pham"
git config user.email "your-email@example.com"
```

### 4. Add All Files to Git

# Verify remote is added
git remote -v
```

### 7. Set Main Branch and Push
```bash
# Set main branch
git branch -M main

# Push to remote repository
git push -u origin main
```

### 8. Verify Upload
```bash
# Check if push was successful
git status

# View commit history
git log --oneline -5

# Check remote tracking
git branch -vv
```

## 🔧 Troubleshooting

### If Authentication is Required:
```bash
# Option 1: Use personal access token
git remote set-url origin https://your-username:your-token@gitea.phongprojects.id.vn/phongpham/Laca-City.git

# Option 2: Use SSH (if SSH key is configured)
git remote set-url origin git@gitea.phongprojects.id.vn:phongpham/Laca-City.git
```

### If Repository Already Exists:
```bash
# Force push (use with caution)
git push -u origin main --force

# Or pull first then push
git pull origin main --allow-unrelated-histories
git push -u origin main
```

### If Large Files Need to be Excluded:
The `.gitignore` file has been created to exclude:
- `node_modules/`
- `.next/`
- `dist/`
- `.env` files
- Database files
- Log files
- Cache files
