🚀 Quick Upload Guide - Apollo.io Apify Scraper

⚡ Fastest Method (3 Options)

Option 1: Automated Script (Recommended) ✅

Step 1: Install Git

  1. Download: https://git-scm.com/download/windows
  2. Install with default settings
  3. Restart PowerShell

Step 2: Run Upload Script

Right-click on one of these files and select "Run":

  • setup-git-and-upload.bat (Windows Batch)
  • OR setup-git-and-upload.ps1 (PowerShell)

The script will:

  1. ✅ Configure Git
  2. ✅ Initialize repository
  3. ✅ Add remote (your GitHub repo)
  4. ✅ Commit README first
  5. ✅ Push README to GitHub
  6. ✅ Ask if you want to upload all other files
  7. ✅ Upload everything

Option 2: Manual Commands (If Git is Already Installed)

# Open PowerShell and run these commands:

cd "C:\Cursor Projects\apollo\apollo-email-scraper-main"

# Configure Git (first time only)
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "your@email.com"

# Initialize
git init

# Add remote
git remote add origin https://github.com/abdulwasay8126/apollo-2.0.git

# Create main branch
git checkout -b main

# Commit README only
git add README.md
git commit -m "Initial commit: Add comprehensive README"
git push -f origin main

# Then add everything else
git add .
git commit -m "Add complete Apify scraper with documentation"
git push origin main

Done! Check: https://github.com/abdulwasay8126/apollo-2.0
