Well first of all you didnt commit anything:

0 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)

Dont forget to first add your files before commiting:

git add README

Second problem, it looks like you don't have permissions to push to our repository, what most likely means you didn't put correctly in place your keys, check this guide for generating your keys with github

you have to make `git push origin master` if it keeps getting the error `Permission denied (publickey).` then you still have problems with the keys (check that the key has only read permission for the owner with `chmod 0400 ~/.ssh/id_rsa*`) – Fernando Diaz Garrido Feb 17 '11 at 09:34

Please read this, I think it should help:

http://help.github.com/msysgit-key-setup/

Or this URL: http://help.github.com/troubleshooting-ssh/ (Permission denied (publickey))

Which is the exact same error you have.

You need to add files before you can commit them. That's your first mistake.

Secondly, your ssh credentials are not uploaded on Github so it doesn't know who you are when you try to push. Since you're using github, the details are here for Gnu/Linux and here for Windows.

As for learning the basics, the best documentation I've found are the progit book, git community book and the git reference card.

If you're in India, I conduct public trainings on git which you can register for and attend. The details are on my website linked to from my Profile.

The readme file is empty, that's why the 0 insertion. Obviously the file has been committed: 'create mode 100644 README' – Antoine Pelisse Feb 17 '11 at 09:17
If you've added a `0` byte file, it's fine. Git will track that for you. After you commit, try doing a `git log` and you will be able to see the commit. The pushing is not working because of an ssh setup problem. – Noufal Ibrahim Feb 17 '11 at 09:19
