Git<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To begin your journey into the magical land of Git, you must first download it from its official website. This involves navigating a labyrinth of options to find your operating system and clicking on the &#8220;download&#8221; button.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Embrace_the_Spellbinding_Installation\"><\/span>Step 2: Embrace the Spellbinding Installation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After downloading the Git file, it&#8217;s time to invoke the installation ritual. Follow the instructions that mysteriously appear on your screen, selecting your preferred options while being mindful of the possible dangers.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, choose the option that bestows the power to execute Git commands from the command line, known as &#8220;Git Bash Here,&#8221; with great care.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Unlock_the_Secrets_of_Visual_Studio\"><\/span>Step 3: Unlock the Secrets of Visual Studio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Having established Git&#8217;s presence, it&#8217;s time to explore its mystical connection to the powerful Visual Studio. Open Visual Studio and venture into the &#8220;Tools&#8221; menu, delving into the depths of the &#8220;Options&#8221; section.<\/p>\n<p>Then, with great anticipation, select &#8220;Source Control&#8221; from the left-hand menu and choose Git from the mesmerizing drop-down menu.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Unleash_the_Full_Potential_of_Git_in_Visual_Studio\"><\/span>Step 4: Unleash the Full Potential of Git in Visual Studio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that the hidden powers of Git and Visual Studio have been united, it&#8217;s time to set up Git in Visual Studio to fulfil its mission. However, there are certain rituals to be followed. <\/p>\n<p>First, enter the &#8220;Team Explorer&#8221; panel, usually located in the right-hand side of the screen. Enter the &#8220;Clone&#8221; mode and chant the URL of the Git repository you seek to clone.  <\/p>\n<p>But wait, it&#8217;s not over yet. You must prove your credentials to access the sacred repositories. Therefore, the mystical powers of Visual Studio will prompt you to enter your username and password.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Magic_with_SSH_Keys\"><\/span>Step 5: Magic with SSH Keys<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For those who wish to connect to Git repositories using SSH, another spell needs to be performed. Summon the Git Bash by right-clicking on a folder and selecting &#8220;Git Bash Here.&#8221; Then tap your wand and run the following incantation:<br \/>\nssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C &#8220;your_email@example.com&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Follow the mysterious on-screen instructions, and the key will be generated and saved to ~\/.ssh\/id_rsa. Embrace this newly acquired power.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_6_Achieve_Ultimate_Power_with_GitLab\"><\/span>Step 6: Achieve Ultimate Power with GitLab<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To wield your SSH key and connect to Git repositories, a final feat of magic is required. Gently float towards your GitLab account settings and incant the phrase &#8220;SSH Keys.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Enter a name for your key and copy the contents of the id_rsa.pub file to the &#8220;Key&#8221; field. With the power of the &#8220;Add Key&#8221; spell, you are now ready to reach the pinnacle of Git and Visual Studio connection.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion_The_End_of_the_Quest\"><\/span>Conclusion: The End of the Quest<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As your quest through the realm of Git installation in Visual Studio comes to the end, remember to cherish the newfound magic at your fingertips.
