# Installing Git

How to install git

**Git** is software for tracking changes in any set of [files](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_file), usually used for coordinating work among [programmers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmer) collaboratively developing [source code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_code) during [software development](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_development). Its goals include speed, [data integrity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_integrity), and support for distributed, non-linear workflows (thousands of parallel branches running on different systems).

**Installing Git:**

Windows: <https://gitforwindows.org/> or <https://git-scm.com/download/windows>
