How do I post a current project from my desktop to git? The video doesn't show you how to grab files

To move the code to github, you'll need to set up a repo on github, and than add that repo as a remote using git remote add origin whatever-address-my-repo-is.git and finally git push -u origin master and now you'd see your git repo on on github too.
From here you'd just have to add, commit, push to update both your git repo and your github repo. git init and git remote add are only needed to set up once per project.
