How to install Git

Install Git on Windows

Git for Windows stand-alone installer


1. Download the latest Git for Windows installer.

2. When you've successfully started the installer, you should see the Git Setup wizard
screen. Follow the Next and Finish prompts to complete the installation. The default
options are pretty sensible for most users.

3. Open a Command Prompt (or Git Bash if during installation you elected not to use Git
from the Windows Command Prompt).

4. Run the following commands to configure your Git username and email using the
following commands, replacing Emma's name with your own. These details will be
associated with any commits that you create:

$ git config --global user.name "Emma Paris"


$ git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

5. Optional: Install the Git credential helper on Windows

Bitbucket supports pushing and pulling over HTTP to your remote Git repositories on
Bitbucket. Every time you interact with the remote repository, you must supply a
username/password combination. You can store these credentials, instead of supplying
the combination every time, with the Git Credential Manager for Windows.
