Setup Git¶
Git will be used to issue commands to commit, and push code changes to our GitHub repository.
MacOS¶
Install Homebrew:
The fastest way to install packages onto MacOS is with Homebrew, if you already have Homebrew installed you can skip this step
To install Brew, in a terminal window enter
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
Install GIT:
In a terminal window enter:
brew install git
Linux¶
Installation of Git can be done with the built in package managers on most all linux distributions - to cover common use cases the steps below are for Debian and CentOS
Debian, Ubuntu Linux, Raspberry Pi OS (apt)
apt-get install git
Fedora, CentOS, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (dnf)
dnf install git
Windows¶
Installation of Git can be done with powershell winget package manager. Open PowerShell and enter the following installation command:
winget install -e --id Git.Git
If prompted enter Y to approve installation
Once installation is complete you must add Git CLI installation to the Windows PATH:
$Env:PATH += ";C:\Program Files\Git\bin"
