Let's kick things off by installing Kit for Windows.
Windows doesn't ship with kept out of the box, so we have to install it ourselves manually.
Open your browser.
Search for kids for a windows.
And go to the official gates for Windows website, there you can click Download.
Depending on their internet connection, this might take a while.
Because of that, I already downloaded it in advance.
Navigate through your downloads directory and execute the installer.
It will ask you for further permissions.
Click Yes.
Now, let's proceed.
Click next.
Now we will see a few default settings which are already checked for you.
The Windows Explorer integration makes sure if you right click in your explorer and show more options,
then you can execute the GIDS bash right away.
It will open up into current direct you where currently located.
Get the laughs, make sure if you have really large files in their kit repository that you commit them
as well associated get configuration files with the default text.
The data means you can open those files directly in the defined text editor associate associated this
files.
Usually, you can't execute as h files on your Windows operating system, but because we get gets bash
for free.
We have the opportunity to also execute those files hit next.
Now you can set your default text editor, which you can use to edit your commit messages or other messages
which are related to kids, in my case, I use visual studio code, so therefore Visual Studio code
is predefined.
But you can also change it to sublime text because Andre uses sublime text throughout the course.
And if you use it as well, then chose sublime text.
There are a few other things as well.
Choose that one which fits best for you.
In my case, I go with visual studio code.
This configuration means you can decide which name your default branch should have.
Usually we had a master in the past, but this changed and now I choose overrides and chose Maine as
my default name for my default branch.
Now he can choose where it should be available.
I would recommend to use the gifts from the command line and also from third party software because
I myself switch off from back and forth between PowerShell CMT and get beshe.
I need this setting.
I would recommend it because you might do it in the future as well.
So you are set up, probably hit next.
Use the bundled Optimus H Wood chips with kit.
Also, the open SSL Library is important now to line ending's windows, uses the front line and extend
Unix or MEK.
In this case, you want to make sure the line endings get converted the right way.
So go with checkered windows style and commit unique style line endings.
Next.
We use the default engine, which makes sure everything gets displayed, probably in our terminal.
We also want to fast forward on a much.
The good credential manager core is useful if you're trying to push things and you have stored your
credentials in this credential manager.
You also want to enable the file system caching because it can speed up things.
No experimental things here, and let's install it.
This might take a while.
So let me fast forward for you that you don't have to wait.
All right.
We are finished now.
Make sure you check the few released notes except of you're interested in what's in there and to finish.
Now, let's check if everything worked as expected.
Oatmeal terminal, it is important that you open a new terminal because otherwise environmental path
variable wouldn't be refreshed automatically.
In my case, I didn't have one open, so I just open.
You will let me increase the size.
And now to make sure that everything is installed, probably Typekit that stash version.
All right.
Get us installed, probably one thing which I want to mention is a few students encountered in the past
an issue they weren't able to push right away.
They got the message that they have to define their kid's username and their email with which they want
to commit any changes in order to do so.
I would recommend to cult figure read those credentials right away.
You can do so by simply executing the commands get called Fake Dash, Dash Global user name and then
type your name.
In my case, it's Wolfgang.
The other thing which you have to configure is to email with Kit called FICC, that Dash Global User
Dot email and then type your email.
In my case, Mike gets up email is Raptor's at ProtonMail dot com.
All right, now, everything is set up and you can start using it on windows.
