Git Version control systems is my favorite share and collaborate coding projects. Not just me Git is one of the most popular version control.
Further than my noted I will show the step installing and configuring Git on an Ubuntu 18.04 and this could be available to any version of Ubuntu.
Step 1 — Update Default Packages
Logged into your Ubuntu 18.04 server as a sudo non-root user, first update your default packages.
sudo apt update
Step 2 — Install Git
sudo apt install git
Step 3 — Confirm Successful Installation
You can confirm that you have installed Git correctly by running this command and receiving output similar to the following:
git --version
Output
git version 2.17.1
Step 4 — Set Up Git
Now that we have Git installed and to prevent warnings, you should configure it with your information.
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
If you need to edit this file, you can use a text editor such as nano:
nano ~/.gitconfig
~/.gitconfig contents
[user]
name = Your Name
email = [email protected]
This is should be working, if you found any issue please let's me know on below comment.
