A simple set of scripts to convert your source/artifacts into a repo and enable sharing.
This avoids having to zip or xcopy your source to a share of heavens forbid email. Since this builds on git
you can work against a respository that others on your team can also look at or contribute into.
The create script is the bootstrapper and does 3 things
- Converts your artifacts to a local repository and commits them.
- Creates a remote repository on a share specified.
- Configures an origin and pushes your work and gives you a
git clone URL.

The remote respositories are stored in some pre-configured share. The script looks for a
~$hareName.txt in the script folder. This file is git ignored for convenince but will
be prompted for if it hasn't been configured and if you specify just a name instead of a UNC
create testrepo
This will prompt for script creation.
This script is nothing more than just git init with a first commit. You can run it in the folder you want or just point it at the source that you want commited. If you just want source history then this is all you probably need. I wonder why VS doesn't do this by default. As soon as you run this VS git elements lights up.
