I'm completely new to git, but I'm trying to learn. I followed this guide and I got it working on a network share. I used git bash. I've found how to do a lot of it with the Visual Studio GUI, which is what I would prefer rather than having to go back and forth to the command line (I'm coming from Visual Source Safe where you just do pending checkins, checkin, and you're done).
The only command I couldn't find was:
git remote add origin <server>
How do I do that for a UNC share in Visual Studio 2013, in the GUI?
To my knowledge
Visual Studio Tools for Git
(VS Git Support) does not yet support managing remotes, unfortunately. I believe the team at MSFT responsible for VS Git features has it backlogged, but it's low priority.See the comments on SO#21469233 re: Edward Thomson.
