title: Need help making a new repository on a project I've started already
body: <p>I have NO idea what I am doing with git. I started a project in vs code. I then decided after, that I would like to upload it to github to attempt to make my site live. </p>
  
  <p>I went through the instructions for git bash and uploading a project to github. </p>
  
  <p>I am now getting these errors: " ! [rejected]        master -> master (non-fast-forward)
  error: failed to push some refs to '<a href="https://github.com/eddiepearson/layout-testing.git" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/eddiepearson/layout-testing.git</a>'
  hint: Updates were rejected because the tip of your current branch is behind
  hint: its remote counterpart. Integrate the remote changes (e.g.
  hint: 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
  hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.
  "</p>
  
  <p>I have NO clue what to do or what I am doing at this point. I see .git in my project folder, but nothing is live in github other than a Readme.</p>
