I have this local project inside a folder that I have not used git init yet. I've already setup a new repo on github and I wanted to upload this existing project to this new repo. Unfortunately, following this would not work:

…or push an existing repository from the command line

```
git remote add origin https://github.com/Kas1680/TrailSquirrel.git
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main

```

I just want a simple "upload this local repo to a new remote repo". Tried googling already but no avail.
Also tried cloning it. It won't let me add/commit
