• Configuring credentials (you can always change this)
  • name: git config --global user.name "Leejun Kim"
    • check by git config user.name
  • email: `git config —global user.email “(email)”
• Download GitKraken GUI

# global config
git init
git config --global user.name "lkim0402" 
git config --global user.email "estherleejunkim@gmail.com"
 
# config specific for a project 
git config user.name "개별 프로젝트용 이름" 
git config user.email "project@example.com"

• git init
  • Initializes new git repo.
    • Creates a dir called .git that contains all git history
  • Top down: any child dirs will get tracked
  • DO NOT GIT INIT INSIDE A REPO (check w/ git status)
