Set Up Git

If you’re already using Git, have a client you like, and a GitHub account, you can skip this section. Otherwise, read on!

Install and configure Git, join GitHub

If you’re not already using Git, you might need to install and configure it.

You’ll also need a GitHub account, which you can sign up for here.

We highly recommend you create an SSH key if you don’t already have one and add it to your GitHub account. If you don’t, you’ll have to type your GitHub username and password every time you interact with GitHub, which is usually several times.
