Hey, there is a project I have been working on sometime with my macbook and now that I have my mac all set up I want to continue to work on this project on the mac. I have tried uploading it to github and downloading it on the mac but that broke a lot of my code and would require a lot of time to fix each time I try to pass it back and forth. I looked around online but couldn't find a fix for this. I am pretty new to this, and am very thankful for any advice you can give me.

Any time you duplicate a project folder, you run the risk of breaking paths. Passing it back and forth isn't practical, I think..

You might want to get a single working copy of that project on an external drive that you can move between your macs, instead.

About using GIT, tho, the basic practice of sharing work on a project, where you would be both parties, is fairly straightforward, where you check it out on one mac, make edits, then check it out on the other, vs. straight download each time.
