Failed at the course-directory@0.1.0 deploy script

Hi guys. After pushing my code to github and configuring the package.json, I tried the script `npm run deploy', the terminal shows the following log:

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 1
npm ERR! course-directory@0.1.0 deploy: `gh-pages -d build`
npm ERR! Exit status 1
npm ERR!

For those having this issue... I was able to fix it by navigating to my project directory in the command line and doing

$git remote add origin https://github.com/username/reponame

After doing this, running npm run deploy should work fine.
