To start efficiently working with repositories, you need to go through several installation steps and connect to the server. Let's start by downloading all the necessary files:

GIT: This is the main program for version control and tracking changes in code and project files.

GIT LFS: This is an extension for GIT that allows managing large files, such as media resources and other large data, reducing the amount of downloaded data and optimizing storage.

Sourcetree: This is a simple and versatile interface for working with GIT. It has a user-friendly interface and provides all the necessary functions for comfortable repository management.

Installation

The installation order is very important. Follow these steps to install the programs:

  1. Install GIT first. During installation, just click "Next" and don't need to press anything else.
  1. After installing GIT, install GIT LFS. Here too, you don't need to make any changes; it will automatically detect the previously installed GIT, just click "Next."
  1. After installing the first two programs, install the most important one - Sourcetree. Follow the simple instructions during installation.

At the beginning of the Sourcetree installation, it may offer to install additional applications, but we don't need them, so just skip this step.

Then uncheck "Mercurial." This is a program that you don't need.

Next, the program will ask you to enter your nickname and email. Provide real information.

An important step - the program will ask, "Load SSH keys." Be sure to click "No." If you click "Yes," you will have to uninstall the program and remove all its traces, which is not pleasant.

Now you have successfully installed the programs and are ready to start working. Congratulations!
