### Using Git
|
||||
|
||||
To use Git on the command line, you'll need to download, install, and configure Git on your computer. {% if currentVersion == "free-pro-team@latest" or currentVersion ver_gt "enterprise-server@2.19" or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %} You can also install {% data variables.product.prodname_cli %} to use {% data variables.product.product_name %} from the command line. For more information on {% data variables.product.prodname_cli %}, see the [{% data variables.product.prodname_cli %}](https://cli.github.com/manual/) documentation.{% endif %}
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to work with Git locally, but don't want to use the command line, you can instead download and install the [{% data variables.product.prodname_desktop %}]({% data variables.product.desktop_link %}) client. For more information, see "[Installing and configuring {% data variables.product.prodname_desktop %}](/desktop/installing-and-configuring-github-desktop/)."
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't need to work with files locally, {% data variables.product.product_name %} lets you complete many Git-related actions directly in the browser, including:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Creating a repository](/articles/create-a-repo)
|
||||
- [Forking a repository](/articles/fork-a-repo)
|
||||
- [Managing files](/articles/managing-files-on-github/)
|
||||
- [Being social](/articles/be-social)
|
||||
|
||||
### Setting up Git
|
||||
|
||||
1. [Download and install the latest version of Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads).
|
||||
2. [Set your username in Git](/github/getting-started-with-github/setting-your-username-in-git).
|
||||
3. [Set your commit email address in Git](/articles/setting-your-commit-email-address).
|
||||
|
||||
### Next steps: Authenticating with {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} from Git
|
||||
|
||||
When you connect to a {% data variables.product.product_name %} repository from Git, you'll need to authenticate with {% data variables.product.product_name %} using either HTTPS or SSH.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Connecting over HTTPS (recommended)
|
||||
|
||||
If you [clone with HTTPS](/github/getting-started-with-github/about-remote-repositories/#cloning-with-https-urls), you can [cache your {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} credentials in Git](/github/getting-started-with-github/caching-your-github-credentials-in-git) using a credential helper.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Connecting over SSH
|
||||
|
||||
If you [clone with SSH](/github/getting-started-with-github/about-remote-repositories/#cloning-with-ssh-urls), you must [generate SSH keys](/articles/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent) on each computer you use to push or pull from {% data variables.product.product_name %}.
|
||||
|
||||
### Celebrate
|
||||
|
||||
Congratulations, you now have Git and {% data variables.product.product_name %} all set up! What do you want to do next?
