CodeCommit

• codecommit is an AWS git service. Here's how to create a repo:

  aws codecommit create-repository --repository-name "my-app" --repository-description "my app details..."
  

• If you're using codecommit make sure git is configured to use your aws credentials:

  git config --global credential.helper '!aws codecommit credential-helper $@'
  git config --global credential.UseHttpPath true
  

• If you're using cloud9 make sure git is configured with your identity:

  git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"
  

Otherwise it will appear the cloud9 instance is making commits.

• install jq ( a json parser)

  sudo yum install jq -y
  

• Here's how to get the http clone url of a codecommit repo, also available in console:

  aws codecommit get-repository --repository-name my-app | jq -r .repositoryMetadata.cloneUrlHttp
  

• here's how to set remote to existing repo:

  git remote add origin "https://git-codecommit.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/my-app"
