dil_bert Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 hello dear phpfreaks and php-expert, hope you are fine and all goes well at your site. i am just in the mid of configuring the GIT account basically - with SSH and so on well i just have started with ATOM and now i want to connect to GITHUB: i have found out that git-plus an support my needs and ideas alot. I have a or git-specific question, like where to find gitconfig, I find this site to be the most helpful. [ https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#FILES ] my tasks for the weekend: I would like to configure Atom to connect to my GitHub repositories. I have installed the git-plus package and went through the process of creating an SSH key on my Win and adding my public key to my GitHub account. I am pretty new to this stuff so I am confused by what may simple issues for more experienced people. I’d appreciate some help!Issue 1: Pointing git-plus to my local repositories I have GitHub Desktop installed on my Windows-machine and it is connected to my repositories online. git-plus has a setting for the “Git Path” but I’m really not sure where that is on my Windows-machine. Is it the folder for my local repositories (that are synced through GitHub Desktop) or something else?Issue 2: Editing gitconfig The git-plus instructions include this: Make sure your gitconfig file is configured. You must configure at least the user.email and user.name 2 variables. I don’t have a clue where to find my gitconfig file. Again, this is very very probably pretty obvious, just not to me. Please could someone point me to that? btw: Found those pages:https://atom.io/packages/git-plus for git-specific questions, like where to find gitconfig , I find this site to be the most helpful.https://git-scm.com/docs/git-config#FILES Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/307963-configuring-the-git-account-basically-with-ssh-and-so-on/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
