GIT Installation – English

Welcome!

These are the installation instructions for the GIT training.

During our five meetings we will practice saving code versions locally on our laptops, and globally in the cloud, as well as updating the project history.

You will also learn how to write clean code, and prepare a professional programmer’s portfolio in github for your future job interview.

Requirements:

I wrote my first program, I wrote my first code in HTML, CSS, etc.

What I wrote appears on a local file in my computer.

I know how to navigate to the file using Windows file manager or Mac / Linux.

I know what a file extension is.

I know the file extension of the file I wrote and what it means (For example: txt for text files, C ++ for the files in my language, the meaning of “.exe”, etc.)

I know the editing tools or the compiler I work with.

I know the windows command line.

I know how to install from the network, download an installation file and run it.
