How do I create a new GitHub repo from a branch in an existing repo?

Question

I have master and new-project branches. And now I\'d like to create a brand new repo with its master based on the new-project branch.

Answer 1

Not sure whether this is a good way, but it's easy anyway:

git clone -b new-project git@github.com:User/YourProject.git newProjcet

Then create a new repo on github, and push it.
