Installing Git and a Text Editor

Skip these instructions if you've already installed git.

Make sure your machine has git installed. You can do this by installing it through the package manager used by your distribution.

On Ubuntu/Debian, for example:

sudo apt-get install git

Also make sure you have a text editor that you are comfortable with. For something easy to use and open-source, install Atom. I do recommend that in the future you learn to use either Vim or Emacs, but I will not be teaching them in this workshop.

Once you've completed these steps you can move on to the Part 2: Setup your Repository page.
