For a while I was using git and github for uploading my code and projects. ( In case you yet not familiar with it – github is really a great place for storing your code and collaborating/ sharing your work with others, so please check it out.)
I was using Ubuntu OS and ofcourse – on Linux machine git is basically installed with a single command and SSH keys are created very easy.
Windows users had the option for using stuff like cygwin, to be able to get the git functionality under windows, which at some point could be a little anoying for the GUI type of guys
…Well not anymore!
After switching back to windows I was amazed how much TortoiseGit has improved for the last few years, and how easy it is now for the windows users to use git
In this tutorial I’ll cover the following:
- how to install everything you need to setup Git and TortoiseGIT on your lovely Windows OS.
- how to generate a private key with PuttyGen and set this up on your github account
- how to initially create your repo at github and clone the repo to your local machine
OK – lets do this !
