To install Git on Windows 10, you can follow these steps:
Download Git for Windows:
Visit the official Git website: [ Ссылка ]
Click on the "Download" button to start the download of the latest version.
Run the Installer:
Locate the downloaded Git executable file (usually named something like "Git-2.x.x-64-bit.exe" for 64-bit systems or "Git-2.x.x-32-bit.exe" for 32-bit systems).
Double-click the file to run the installer.
Configure the Installation:
The installer will prompt you with various configuration options:
Select Components: Leave the default components selected unless you have a specific reason to change them.
Select Destination Location: Choose the installation directory. The default location is usually fine.
Adjusting Your PATH Environment: Choose the default option, "Use Git from the Windows Command Prompt," to add Git to your system PATH.
This allows you to use Git from the Command Prompt or PowerShell.
Choosing the SSH Executable: Use the default, "Use OpenSSH."
Select an Editor: Choose your preferred text editor for Git. VIM is the default, but you can use any text editor you like. I suggest Notepad++.
Choosing HTTPS Transport Backend: Leave the default option, "Use the OpenSSL library."
Configuring Line Endings: Choose the default option, "Checkout Windows-style, commit Unix-style line endings."
Configuring the Terminal Emulator: Choose the default, "Use Windows' default console window."
Configuring Extra Options: Optionally, enable file system caching for improved performance.
Completing the Installation:
Click "Next" to proceed with the installation.
The installer will copy files and complete the installation process.
Launch Git Bash:
After the installation is complete, you can launch Git Bash from the Start menu or use Git from the Command Prompt or PowerShell.
Verify Installation:
To verify that Git has been installed successfully, open a Command Prompt or PowerShell window and run the following command:
git --version
You should see the installed Git version displayed, indicating that Git is ready to use on your Windows 10 system.
That's it! You have successfully installed Git on your Windows 10 computer, and you can now use Git for version control and development tasks.
