Git: Setup und erste Schritte

Install git

https://git-scm.com/install/

Change the following options when using the graphical installer:

- Choosing default Editor: Choose Notepad++ (or other editor of choice that is installed)

- Adjusting the name of the initial branch in new repositories: Override the default: main

- Choose the default behavior of git pull: Rebase

For the rest take the default options

GUI (Optional)

Optionally, for a GUI, additionally install TortoiseGIT. Use the OpenSSH option during the install process

TortoiseGIT is a graphical wrapper for the git CLI. TortoiseGIT is found in the Windows Explorer context menu.

In a terminal run:

git lfs install

This is necessary once on each machine.
