Could you provide a screenshot what you see? Do note that Github is currently refreshing the look of the site, but from your description of your problem, that's probably not applicable.

I only see a blank box. Quick tips would be to to at least see your local repository commit history via git log to see you are in fact committing things at all.

I would list all the git remotes you have via git remote -v.

From there, I would then use git remote add origin <and the name of your respository .git url> again if you don't see your github repository listed.

I am not sure how do i put a screenshot here.. I know the git log part.. was wondering how can i see it on the dashboard.. as they show in the video

Did git remote -v not work for you in the console? Make sure you go to the same directory where everything is saved. If nothing is listed or git informs you it is empty, your remote repository was never added for git push - origin to be able to work.

sminu@treebook:~/537865 (master) $ git remote -v
origin https://github.com/sminugeorge/treebook.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/sminugeorge/treebook.git (push)

How To post a screenshot on the forum

  1. Go to imgur
  2. Click on Computer
  3. Select the image you saved when taking your screenshot
  4. Post link to the image here

Hmm, when you use git push -u origin what happens? It should prompt you for your username and password and show you progress of repository being uploaded to this address.

When I clicked the link, it stated 'nothing to see here yet`, which indicates it is empty. Therefore there wouldn't be any logs to show.
