TortoiseGit is a kind of family project with TortoiseSVN and TortoiseCVN, so if you are familiar with that, you will be easy to use it.

TortoiseGit is easy to use, because it is integrated with Windows shell as well as lots of development utilities, but I won't cover about that at the moment.


STEP 1. Install git on Windows 10

For git, you need to download a core component at https://git-scm.com/downloads

Once download is done, you need to install it on your PC.


STEP 2. Install TortoiseGit client

Download TortoiseGit at https://tortoisegit.org/download/


STEP 3. Create a repository on your PC

In order to manage the source code efficiently, you need to have your own location on your PC, so you can add new features, modify the legacy codes without any dependency in external sources.

  • In some cases, someone may need to develop some parts at the same time - it will cause lots of issues such as making errors in the previously verified codes.
  • If you have your own codes based on the master repository, you will be able to develop your code more efficiently.


The action you should do on windows is run following commands on DOS Shell. For your information, I will use project name as chun below.

mkdir c:\chun.git
c:\
cd c:\chun.git


Note. if you need to use the different directory, you can simply replace C:\Repository\chun by your preferred location.


If you have your own private server, having no dependency with others, which can run full features, it will be the best development environment - some people usually use VM like QEMU.
