== Install Git==

To get started, you will need to '''install git'''. Doing so requires different steps depending on your operating system. Basic instructions available from [https://git-scm.com/downloads the Git website]. 

You will also likely need to set it up so it knows what your name and email address is. You can do that like:

<source lang='bash'>
$ git config --global user.name "John Doe"
$ git config --global user.email johndoe@example.com
Again
</source>

Note that RStudio also has Git integration now. Instructions and details available via [https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200532077-Version-Control-with-Git-and-SVN RStudio support documentation].
