Update: This thread ([HTTP 500 error on initial git push](https://discourse.psychopy.org/t/http-500-error-on-initial-git-push/41100)) has been immensely helpful, and once I figured out that I just had to drag the hidden .git file into terminal (after "cd " of course) to make it my working directory, the commands listed in this solution work out great. (Yeah, not the most terminal/tech-savvy here, so it took a minute to figure out.)
