Git: Project Setup

You can setup git project using CLI commands, either manually or using an automated script.

Note

veritaspress is our project name that will be set up locally

Git Setup Script

For quick and automated Git repository setup, use the git_setup bash script with interactive prompts.

Quick Example

After installing the script from the bash service scripts guide:

# Navigate to project directory
cd /var/www/html
mkdir veritaspress
cd veritaspress

# Run the interactive setup script
git_setup

The script will prompt you for:

Git Repository URL
Branch Name (e.g., master, main, develop)
Git User Name
Git User Email

Then automatically configure your repository with all the necessary settings.

Manual Setup Using GIT Commands

If you prefer manual setup instead of using the automated script:

Go to /var/www/html
Create directory: mkdir veritaspress

Execute following commands:

cd veritaspress
git init
git remote add origin <git_url>
git fetch
git checkout master
git config user.name "Your Name"
git config user.email "your.email@example.com"

Go to github, select the project and copy the github repository url:
