Git and Github Setup

Basics on how to configure git and github.

Git

Initially we can set username and email.

            git config --global user.name "NAME"
            git config --global user.email "EMAIL"

            git config user.name    # Check usename
            git config user.email   #Check email
                

Github

Now we need to connect our account with github with a SSH. All the setting can be found in the links below

• Generate new keys
• Adding new ssh to github

Here we basically need to copy and paste the commands there, so it does not make sense to reproduce these instructions.
