to initialize git locally and push your code to this GitHub repo:

Here are the exact steps you need to run in your terminal:

# Step 1: Initialize git
git init

# Step 2: Add all files
git add .

# Step 3: Commit the changes
git commit -m "Initial commit"

# Step 4: Add the remote repository
git remote add origin https://github.com/curious-pm/mcp-todoist.git

# Step 5: Push the code to the main branch
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main

---

Perfect — if you want to create a new branch called sse and start working on it, here’s the simple flow:

---

📜 Commands:

# Step 1: Create a new branch named "sse"
git checkout -b sse

# Step 2: (Optional) Check that you are now on branch "sse"
git branch

# Step 3: Push this new branch to GitHub
git push -u origin sse

---

###Creating a new branch "sse"

• git checkout -b sse → Create + switch to sse.
• git push -u origin sse → Upload the sse branch to GitHub.
• git checkout sse →switching between branches

---

No worries! 🤝 You're asking really good questions — let’s go slow and clear:

🔥 1. How to switch between branches?

You can move (checkout) from one branch to another using:

git checkout branch-name

For example:

• To switch to main:

  git checkout main

• To switch to sse:

  git checkout sse

---

What happens when you push code to sse branch?

• Your changes will only go to the sse branch.
• main branch will stay clean and untouched unless you merge.
• Think of it like two parallel copies:
  • main has the "stable" or "official" version.
  • sse is your experimental or new work branch.

Important: They are independent until you merge them manually.

Later, how to bring sse code into main?

When you finish working on sse, you can merge it into main like this:

# Step 1: Switch to main branch
git checkout main

# Step 2: Pull latest changes from remote to be safe
git pull origin main

# Step 3: Merge 'sse' into 'main'
git merge sse

# Step 4: Push merged changes to GitHub
git push origin main
