title: How do I set up Eclipse/EGit with GitHub?
body: <p>I've never used Git before and would like to learn.</p>
  
  <p>I have a private repository with GitHub.</p>
  
  <p>I've installed the EGit plugin for Eclipse.</p>
  
  <p>I have a workspace where I do my work, generally: <code>~/Documents/workspace</code>.</p>
  
  <p>I am able to add my GitHub repository and download it, but in doing so it creates <code>~/MyRepository</code>.</p>
  
  <p>When I create a project, do I need to point it to <code>~/MyRepository</code>?</p>
  
  <p>Also, how come when I make an edit and I say push to upstream it says up to date?</p>
