There's gfm-mode (which is part of markdown-mode.el). From the commentary in the file:
;;; GitHub Flavored Markdown:
;; A [GitHub Flavored Markdown][GFM] (GFM) mode, `gfm-mode', is also
;; available. The GitHub implementation of differs slightly from
;; standard Markdown. The most important differences are that

There is a project to allow such functionality, called org-sync. (Or rather, org-sync has a GitHub backend.) You can find it here.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be actively maintained.
The main problem I have noticed is that it doesn't support syncing comments on the issues. As for milestones, it does attach an item to PROPERTIES that tells you which ...

I would do this outside of Emacs, with a wrapper script that pulls the updated config first.
Something like this:
#! /bin/sh
cd ~/.emacs.d && git pull --rebase
exec /usr/bin/emacs "$@"
Then make this executable, name it emacs, and put it on your PATH before the real one.
Another option would be to have init.el do pretty much the same thing: (call-...

The short answer is unless you read through the code yourself you are taking a lot on trust. Having said that trusting a project sourced from an upstream SCM is a little safer than one which has been pulled directly from the Emacs Wiki for example. However fundamentally you are trusting the author of the package not to turn evil and abuse the ability to run ...

Here is my short answer (there is a longer answer below, and since the answer as a whole is kind of long, if I forgot to address something or you have further questions let me know, and I will try to include them):
I can't see any major problems with pushing your entire .emacs.d to dropbox or github, but I think there is a better solution which I will ...

You can embed "raw" html as follows:
<p align="center"><img src="images/wim-128.png" /></p>
When displayed on GitHub.com, for some reason org-mode's image styling directives are ignored.
However GitHub does not ignore styling of <p> tags, so I used the above fix.

To center with CSS, you need to use margin-left: auto; and margin-right: auto;
try this
#+ATTR_HTML: :style margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;
[[/path/to/img.png]]

For my own purposes I have also added a little helper to magit-rockstar: magit-branch-pull-request. But note that everything in that library is provided as-is (i.e. instead of blogging about snippets, I stuff them into this library). From the library commentary:
Also included are tools that are either only useful for people working on Magit itself and/or ...

Edit ~/.ssh/config so that it contains the following:
Host github.com
IdentitiesOnly yes
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/your_ssh_key
Then whenever magit asks git to ask ssh to talk to github.com, ssh will know what key to use; saves a lot of mucking about.

Use magit-clone to clone a GitHub (or any Git) repo
You can also clone via command line, of course, which I prefer
Open a file in the repo and call magit-status
It is convenient to bind this to a key, e.g. C-c m
Congratulations, you're using Magit.
Howard Abrams' excellent introductory video can get you started with staging, committing, pushing, etc. A ...

Generally speaking you don't configure Magit to access a remote Git repository. Instead you configure git and because Magit uses git, Magit is then also able to do so.
Some issues can arise due to misconfiguration and/or Windows not having a concept of a pty. But even then, the solution is to properly configure Git and/or Emacs. No additional Magit ...

The org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output variable will help you accomplish this.
I've set the following in my configuration files in order to make #+RESULTS code blocks be always enclosed within #+begin_example blocks
(setq org-babel-min-lines-for-block-output 0)
Here's an example
#+begin_src cpp
#include <iostream>

The issue was that the remote url was set to https rather than ssh

Magit doesn't deal with authentication directly and leaves that all to Git. The only thing Magit does is that when Git asks the user to provide a password or passphrase, then it forwards that question to the user and later hands the reply to Git.
Git provides many alternative methods for remembering the secret needed to access a remote repository and they ...

There seems to be a fork of org-sync which was last updated in December 2018. It is on MELPA. Installation:
M-x package-install RET org-sync RET
Add to initialization (.emacs or .emacs.d/init.el)
(mapc 'load
'("org-sync" "org-sync-bb" "org-sync-github" "org-sync-redmine"))
Use: In new org-mode-buffer do

I'm using syohex's emacs-helm-open-github which provides a set of commands to open issues/files/commits's URL in Github easily, it uses the gh library as well, I look down its code and change its helm-open-github--collect-issues function into create-github-issue:
(defun create-github-issue (title body)
(let ((remote-url (helm-open-github--remote-url)))

Since I presume you are going to be sshing to these machines, I suggest you can take a look at sshrc which lets you take your local dotfiles along when you ssh into any server.

Emacs does not provide any direct functionality to interface with Github directly. Refer to this answer by one our members. He wrote an implementation to create repo from magit.

With magit, I would start the process with M-x magit-status or however you prefer to get there. In the status buffer press b to bring up the branching menu, and then press c to create a new branch. A dialog will ask you where to branch from (defaulting to the current branch), and for the name of your new branch.
Do your work, and go back to the status ...

The convention is to name the upstream repository origin. I think it is a good idea to stick to that convention, but I guess naming the upstream repository upstream also makes a lot of sense. However it is a bad idea to name a repository that is not the upstream origin. Doing that is really confusing.
When you clone a repository using git clone <upstream-...

I use pass and the password package in Emacs but for GitHub/GitLab interaction I use SSH keys. Upload your public key to your account and use something like keychain to store your keys on initial login.
Ocassionally I find Emacs doesn't find the Keychain agent so I've the following key-binding to reload..

Magit does not come with a command to do that, but implementing it is easy.
(defun my-magit-fetch-all-repositories ()
"Run `magit-fetch-all' in all repositories returned by `magit-list-repos`."

(dolist (repo (magit-list-repos))

Are you sure you finished the commit correctly? That command that is still running is git commit with some extra options, and the log indicates that git push didn’t have to update anything; the remote already had all the commits.
How did you start the commit, and how did you finalize it?
Edit: From the comments, I see that you saved the commit message, but ...

The magit extension forge supports visiting certain things in a browser, but currently that is limited to issues, pull-requests, commits and the repository itself.
Files and even locations within files might be supported in the future, or not. While I think this would be nice to have I don't plan to work on it any time soon.

You can use Ghub, for example, to create a new repository named "my-cool-project", simply run:
(ghub-post "/user/repos" '((name . "my-cool-project")))
If you want set the name of the repository to the git directory name, you can use:
(when-let ((git-root (locate-dominating-file default-directory ".git"))
(basename (file-name-nondirectory (...

The interesting part of this is, when I log in onto the machine via a terminal session and do a git push there it works flawlessly. So I do have the proper access rights to the repository. The ssh key is added to my local machine and the remote machine.
This is a very common issue even when only pushing from the local machine. It works from a shell but not ...

An alternative solution is to use magit-gh-pulls. I use it with Magit 2.1 to manage Spacemacs.

magit-read-other-branch-or-commit now also offers certain other non-branch refs for completion. Should something be missing, then you can still input the ref or abbreviated ref, without the help of completion. Provided the input is unambiguous, that works with the commands that use this function to read a branch or arbitrary commit.
