You should only need to create a key once, unless you change to another system, or a different Sugar-on-a-Stick drive, or you think your private key was compromised. If you do it again, you must also add the new key to GitHub as described in the next section.

=== Setup Git for Windows 8 ===

=== Setup Git Desktop for Windows 7 or later ===

~~GitHub is one way you~~ can ~~set up Git on Windows 8. It can be downloaded~~ from [~~http~~://~~github~~-~~windows.s3.amazonaws~~.com/~~GitHubSetup.exe~~ here]

You can either directly download and install git from [https://git-scm.com/downloads here]

~~Once downloaded and installed~~, ~~Git Shell~~ can ~~be used to execute Git commands~~.

Or you can set up github desktop, which gives you a GUI to do a lot of things. You can download it from [https://desktop.github.com/ here]

=== Add SSH Key ===

Line 73:

If you do not use git on your system for any other project, you can configure git:

git config -~~f ~/.gitconfig~~ user.email ~~<email-you-used-for-registering-project>~~

git config --global user.email "your_email@example.com"

git config -~~f ~/.gitconfig~~ user.name ~~<your-~~name>

git config --global user.name "Your name"

You should only need to do this once on a system.
