You might have better luck creating a repository where you already have
your source files :-). (If you're worried about what QtC does, you can
just run 'git init .' in your existing source tree. This will create a
.git subdirectory but won't touch anything else. I suspect this is all
QtC does, but I don't use QtC.)

Your source files must reside in the repository directory. You can copy
them there (as Thiago suggests), or see above.
