Basic Git Configuration

If you use Git for the very first time, run the configuration script once, to configure your Git system https://git.acc.gsi.de/schaller/git-scripts/src/branch/master/git-config.

 wget https://git.acc.gsi.de/schaller/git-scripts/raw/branch/master/git-config
 chmod +x git-config
 ./git-config

When asked, enter or check your real name and email address used by Git.

This step needs to be executed just once, but can be executed as many times you need or if you need to recreate your ~/.gitconfig file.

Now continue with creating an uploading an ssh key.
