Google Code's project hosting does not officially support git. About the
only thing you can do is to actually host a Subversion repository there
and then access that via git-svn. However, that deprives you of many of
the big advantages of git, such as useful merging and lightning-fast
cloning (compared to Subversion via git-svn, anyway).

I would recommend that you look for a different hosting site. Other
sites offering free git hosting for open source projects include
Sourceforge, github, gitorious and repo.or.cz. Some of these provide
you with instructions on how to push your code to them. In any case,
I think you could benefit from reading a git tutorial or two.

Also, might I recommend that you create one repository per separate
project you want to get hosted. It's bad organization to keep several
projects in the same repository, and it's likely to bite you in the
behind eventually.

HTH,

Your link says
"Naturally, your official source tree lives on some Git-capable server,"
which is not the case.I have it on my local machine and I never used git before.

You can take "official source tree" and "Git-capable server" to be
your git repo that you git init-ed in your first post. But it's empty
isn't it? So, just skip the "git fetch" step. That leaves:

  $ git svn clone ...
  $ cd trunk

Then go on from there.

What do I do from that is what I asked in first post of this thread?

Assuming you did

  $ git svn clone http://svn.googlecode/url/to/your/repo

You'd have a git repo that is "linked" to the Google Code svn repo.
Now go inside the git repo and do whatever you want. That was what I
thought you were looking for in this thread.

But if you need advice on "how to do stuff in git", (eg. adding files,
commit, push), just google for a git tutorial, I'm sure there are some
pretty good ones out there.
