https://www.theodinproject.com/lessons/foundations-git-basics this is the lesson that i am following. I completed the Create the Repository section successfully. I also completed the Use the Git Workflow section successfully. It's the Modify a File or two where I am facing all the difficulties.

Can someone please show me the way how to do it ?

So now you need to connect Git (the software on your computer) to GitHub (the internet site that will host the central repository). That is done using the command

git config

And giving it your github credential as mentionned in the Setting Up Git lesson that is link in the lesson you are following.
