PushPilot turns the entire process into one simple flow: Enter repository name → Click Publish → Done The repository is created in your GitHub account and the current project is uploaded automatically. How It Works
Open PushPilot from the Activity Bar and enter the repository name directly in the sidebar.
Select Publish to GitHub. PushPilot prepares the workspace, creates the GitHub repository, makes the initial commit, and pushes the project.
Continue developing normally. PushPilot tracks changed files, accepts the commit message in the sidebar, and pushes new updates with one click.
