This will create a new public GitHub repository from the current git repository and add remote origin at "git@github.com:USER/REPOSITORY.git"; USER is your GitHub username and REPOSITORY is the current working directory name.

To explicitly name the new repository, pass in NAME, optionally in ORGANIZATION/NAME form to create under an organization you're a member of.
