How can I add a project from Github to Github without the commits?

Question

I have this project already on Github, but I want to share it again, without the commits. If I try to do it from the IDE, the commits will remain, and if I try to upload it manually, I can't because there are too many files. What would be a work-around for this?

Does this answer your question? [Can you change which commit is the root commit in git?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68461500/can-you-change-which-commit-is-the-root-commit-in-git) — matt, Aug 01 '21 at 09:48

Start a new, empty repository on github
Clone it to your machine
Put all your files in it
Commit and push
