 # ------------------------------ On your local machiene ------------------------------------------------ #
 # Set up a local repository on your computer.  I use git hub to do this but you can also use the following
 $ mkdir website && cd website

 # Initialize the git repository on your site
 $ git init

 # Add your site files - (Lets say you add index to your site)

 # You can either just add the file it self by doing this:
 $ git add index.html

 # OR

 # You can add all the new changes by doing this:

 $ git add .

 # Next we commit our changes with the following including a comment; 

 $ git commit -q -m "The humble beginnings of my web site."


 # ------------------------------ On Web Server ------------------------------------------------ #
 # Ok now we set up our Remove repository on our web server.  
 # This repository is NOT supposed to be in the same folder as your website
 # We use this a repository to push files to from your local computer and then we 
 # set up a hook to push those files to your web folder
 
 # So lets set up a repository. You can put yours whereever you want I would suggest /var
 
 $ sudo mkdir website.git && cd website.git
 
 # Now we create a local repository (The one we will push to)
 
 $ git init -bare
 
 # Change direcotory to your git file then into the hooks file
 
 $ cd website.git/hooks
 
 # create a new file called post-recieve (in the hooks file) 
 
 $ nano  post-recieve
 
 # Add the following putting in the post-recieve file with the location of your live website files (Not git file location)
 # This tells the repository where to push the files to when you commit them from your workstation
 
 #---- Start Copy Below this line ---------------------#
 
  #!/bin/sh
  GIT_WORK_TREE=/var/www/www.example.org git checkout -f
  
 #---- End Copy Above this line -----------------------#
 
 # After saving the file we need to change the permission of the file 
 
 $ chmod +x hooks/post-receive

 # ------------------------------ On your local machiene ------------------------------------------------ # 
 # Now we set up the remote mirror on your workstation 
 # Change direcotry back into your repository then tell git about your new webserver

 # The ssh link is refering your git file

 $ git remote add web ssh://server.example.org/var/website.git

 # We now give our webserver a name so git knows what to call it when we push to it in the future 
 # I called my server "live" 
 
 $ git push live +master:refs/heads/master


 # YEAA were done! Now in the future all you have to do to push to your server is 
  # Add new files 
   $ git add .
   
  # Commit your changes 
   $ git commit -m "My updates yo"
   
  # Push the changes 
   $ git push live
