Google Code's project hosting does not officially support git. About the
only thing you can do is to actually host a Subversion repository there
and then access that via git-svn. However, that deprives you of many of
the big advantages of git, such as useful merging and lightning-fast
cloning (compared to Subversion via git-svn, anyway).

I would recommend that you look for a different hosting site. Other
sites offering free git hosting for open source projects include
Sourceforge, github, gitorious and repo.or.cz. Some of these provide
you with instructions on how to push your code to them. In any case,
I think you could benefit from reading a git tutorial or two.

Also, might I recommend that you create one repository per separate
project you want to get hosted. It's bad organization to keep several
projects in the same repository, and it's likely to bite you in the
behind eventually.
