Configuring Git

Identity

Ensure that username and email are setup for Git.
Either Globally

Bash

git config --global user.name "Prasad Manigaradi"
git config --global user.email "prasad.manigaradi@aadya.tech"

Or locally per repository

Bash

cd path/to/repository
git config user.name "Prasad Manigaradi"
git config user.email "prasad.manigaradi@aadya.tech"

Now that your identity is set up, you can configure the default text editor that will be used when Git needs you to type in a message. If not configured, Git uses your system’s default editor. If you want to use a different text editor, such as nano, you can do the following:
Bash
```
git config --global core.editor nano
```
