Hi Laura. Great article.
A couple of things:

  • In Debian based Linux distros you can install Git with the 'sudo apt install git' command.
  • When starting a local repo (git init) be sure you are in the projects parent directory (for fesoQue)

Thanks for the comments!

Will people with Debian based Linux distros know what you mean by that? Or can you explain to me what that means/what its good for?

Cheers :)

Yeah. right after hitting the Submit button I realized what I had done. You wrote a beautiful non-jargonized (is that a word?) article and I went and replied with a bunch of jargon. D'oh!
So anyone who needs to know will understand the jargon that I spouted.
How much do you know about Linux? I don't want to be caught mansplaining.

Haha you just made it a word 🤷🏼‍♀️😂 no worries. I know nothing of Linux but I’m happy to include a little snippet if it’ll be helpful to Linux users! You can DM it to me if you’d prefer? 😊
