Hi all, I’m up to the part of Lesson 9 where git is mentioned - I’m on a windows 10 machine. I tried doing the git command in the powershell console but it threw up an error - is anyone else experiencing the same thing? I presume there a library i need to install or something?
Cheers
Hi Olly!
I’m glad you’re working through the course!
Yes, you’ll need to install Git. It’s a tool that requires separate installation on every operating system. Sorry, should have made that clear!
There are a couple different ways to get Git working on Win10. You could use Chocolatey, a package manager if you’re not already familiar with it.
Here’s an article that walks through installing Git on Win10. I have NOT walked through this myself, but I did a quick scan and like the approach they take. They also discuss PoshGit, a helper for using Git in Powershell.

I hope this helps!
