1. Create a new repo in Github (or ask for one for the OpenMRS org from code@openmrs.org)
   1. Name: openmrs-module-yourmoduleid
   2. Description: a one-line description of what the module does (look at others for examples)

3. Change the local repo you just converted to point at that one github repo "origin" (below)

   Code Block
   language bash
   $ git remote add origin https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-module-yourmoduleid.git

   Code Block
   language bash
   $ git pull origin master

4. Assuming that your module uses the OpenMRS license and it wasn't already in subversion's root, add it:

   Code Block
