1. Before you start using a git. Git wants you to do registration with git

   To tell Git who you are, run the following two commands:

       $ git config --global user.name "mentionedYourGitUsername"
       $ git config --global user.email "mentionGitRegisterEmailId"

   We are able to see the outputs from many git commands in the terminal. We can have colorful out for the commands what we are running in terminal.

   To turn on code highlighting, just run the following command:

       $ git config --global color.ui true

   The last basic configuration command will let you view your Git configurations. Running this command is the same as asking for a copy of your contract:

       $ git config --list
       user.name=GitUserName
       user.email=GitRegisterdEmailId

2.     $ git init

   The "init" command stands for initialize. Once you run "git init", Git will initialize a hidden directory called ".git" in the project's root directory.

   To know the Git status, you'll need to run:

       $ git status
