After you've created a repo you will presented with the commands necessary to create a new empty repo locally, push an existing local repo, or import an SVN repo.
If you are collaborating on someone else's repo, you can clone the repo using the command `git clone git@github.com:username/reponame.git`. You can find this clone URL in the repo's header when viewing its source page.
