Setup Git for Windows

Option 1 - Install Cmder ( Recommend )

There are few ways to install Git in your workstation. My recommendation would be install cmder, another command prompt for windows os.

Cmder is another command prompt for windows os, it comes with bash commands. You can download cmder from here.

Download the full version (with Git for Windows)

Extract all the files inside the zipped file once the download is done. You are able to find Cmder.exe inside the folder, right-click then send-to desktop as shortcut.

Option 2 - Install Git with Installer

  1. Download git installer from here ( https://git-scm.com/downloads ).

  2. While running the installer, on the page for Adjusting your PATH environment, it's recommend to keep the default setting ( Git from the command line and also from 3rd-party software ).

  3. For other pages, just use the default setting from the installer.

  4. Once the installation is done. Open command prompt, then run the follow command to verify the installation

git --version
