you need to use git clone to clone a repository:

inside your working directory (normally NOT inside a git repository):

git clone https://coding@bitbucket.org/coding/coding.git

If I use "git clone" than can I commit and update from the working directory. – AMit SiNgh Dec 23 '15 at 08:20
yes. git clone means you get a local copy of the whole git repository (including its history). You can then commit and so on – Chris Maes Dec 23 '15 at 08:21
when i am using "git push" command its giving me the below error. fatal: No configured push destination. Either specify the URL from the command-line or configure a remote repository using git remote add and then push using the remote name git push – AMit SiNgh Dec 23 '15 at 08:37

that's another question... consider following a small git tutorial. you need to add a remote in order to be able to push; something like "git remote add ..." – Chris Maes Dec 23 '15 at 08:56
