Follow the steps outlined below
- Standard repo name: DNN.XXXXX, where XXXXX is your module name
- Use a short description
- Public

Now create your repository
- Copy the GitHub URL for the repository
- Use your favorite tool to clone the repo (I use SourceTree)
- Copy the .gitignore fro the DNN.Platform repo (it better tuned to DNN)
- Download the sources from the source tab of the CodePlex project
- You now have a .zip with the latest project sources
- Unzip the content into the local repo
