Migrate local Git repo to Visual Studio Online from IDE

Question

I created a new Team Project on Visual Studio Online that I have connected to in Visual Studio 2013. Using the IDE, I cloned a local Git repo (that was pulled down from GitHub) into the Local Git Repositories section.

When I went through the documentation on Visual Studio's website, it showed an option to "Publish to {Team Project}."

Mine doesn't show this:

And it looks like this has been a problem in the past (others have needed to change the .git/config file). Has this been fixed yet so I can use the IDE completely? Or am I missing something?

Answer 1

The answer marked as correct doesn't appear to be correct. To push an existing local repo to a VSO repo involves following:

git remote add origin https://<NAME>.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_git/<PROJECT> git push -u origin --all

This assumes you've already created <PROJECT> in VS Online as a new team project using Git as the source control strategy.
