Configuration
Setting Up Git
After installing Git, you need to configure it with your name and email.
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "your.email@example.com"
Checking Configuration
git config --global --list
Setting Default Editor
git config --global core.editor "nano"
# or
git config --global core.editor "vim"
# or
git config --global core.editor "code --wait"
Setting Default Branch Name
git config --global init.defaultBranch main
Aliases
Create shortcuts for common commands:
git config --global alias.st status
git config --global alias.co checkout
git config --global alias.br branch
git config --global alias.ci commit
Now you can use git st instead of git status.
