This tutorial is mainly focussed on data science beginners who are new to GitHub.

Maintaining a GitHub data science portfolio is very essential for data science professionals and students in their career. This will essentially showcase their skills and projects.

What is GitHub?

GitHub is a code sharing and publishing service. At the heart of GitHub is Git, an open-source project started by Linux Creator Linus Torvald. Git, like other version control systems, manages and stores revisions of projects.

Steps to add an existing Machine Learning Project in GitHub

• Let’s start by installing Git on our system. To do this we will use the git command-line interface which can be downloaded from here. Follow the instructions according to Windows or Mac for the installation process. Note: There are different ways to add a project, we will be using the traditional git-bash command-line interface for this article.
• If you are already having a **GitHub **account login to it or create a GitHub account here. Then we can create a repository for our project. It’s always a good practice to initialize the project with a README file.

Type in a new repository name for your project

• Go to the Git folder located in C:\Program Files\Git and open the **git-bash **terminal.
