=== Obtaining and installing Git ===
 
If you don't already have Git on your system then you (or your sysadmin) will have to install it.  To check if it is already installed, you can ask for the version at the Unix prompt.  Type:
 
git --version
 
If you get a string similar to:
 
git version 2.17.0
 
then you are good to go.  (The actual version # doesn't matter.)  If not, then you (or your sysadmin) may obtain the Git source code (or binaries) [http://git-scm.com/download the Git website].
 
=== First-time setup ===
 
Before using Git for the first time, you need to set up your <tt>~/.gitconfig</tt> file.  Open a text editor and then cut & paste the text from [http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy-1.6.0/dev/gitwash/configure_git.html this sample <tt>.gitconfig</tt> file].  Then save it as <tt>~/.gitconfig</tt>. 
 
Be sure to change your name and email accordingly, this is how Git will know who you are!
 
Please see the following pages which describe how to download the GEOS-Chem and GAMAP source code packages via Git.
 
=== Downloading GEOS-Chem and GAMAP ===
 
Please see the following wiki pages which contain detailed information about how to use Git to download and modify the GEOS-Chem and GAMAP source code packages:
