Instruction

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.

Git is easy to learn and has a tiny footprint with lightning fast performance. It outclasses SCM tools like Subversion, CVS, Perforce, and ClearCase with features like cheap local branching, convenient staging areas, and multiple workflows. -git-scm.com

If you need more official information, please go to git-scm.com

Install

It is easiest to install Git on Linux using the preferred package manager of your Linux distribution. If you prefer to build from source, you can find the tarballs on kernel.org.

My laptop is Ubuntu 16.04. And i can install from apt-get package management tools.

## Fastest way to install git on debian/ubuntu os
apt-get install git

## Install git with sudo privilege. Remember if install git with sudo, then normal user cannot use git command without sudo privilege.
sudo apt-get install git

## Install Git with PPA

# register git-core to ppa
add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa
# update apt => check if there is latest version
apt update
# install git
apt install git
