# Verify remote is added
git remote -v

7. Set Main Branch and Push

# Set main branch
git branch -M main

# Push to remote repository
git push -u origin main

8. Verify Upload

# 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:

# 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:

# 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
