• Go to the official Git website and download the latest version of Git for your operating system.

• Run the installer and follow the prompts in the Git Setup wizard. It's safe to stick with the default options if you are unsure about any of the settings.

• Open Git Bash.

• Set your username by running:

  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

• Set your email by running:

  git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

• Run the following command in Git Bash:

  ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[email protected]"

  Replace [email protected] with your email.

• When you run the command, it will ask where to save the key. By default, it will save the key to ~/.ssh/id_rsa for your user profile. Press enter to accept the default.

• It will also ask for a passphrase for extra security, which is optional.

• Run the following command in Git Bash:

  ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "[email protected]"

  Replace [email protected] with your email.

• The command will ask where to save the key. By default, it will save the key to ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 for your user profile. Press enter to accept the default.

• It will also ask for a passphrase for extra security, which is optional.

• Start the SSH agent by running:

  eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

• Add your SSH key to the agent by running:

  ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

  Replace id_rsa with id_ed25519 if you generated an ED25519 key.

• Run the following command to ensure that Git uses your SSH key:

  git config --global core.sshCommand "ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -o IdentitiesOnly=yes"

  Replace id_rsa with id_ed25519 if you generated an ED25519 key.

• To enable colored output, run:

  git config --global color.ui auto
