Sets the author’s name linked to commits.

git config --user.email "youremail"

Sets the email address linked to commits.

git config --list

Shows all Git configuration settings currently applied to the system.

ls ~/.ssh

Lists the contents of the .ssh directory in the home folder.

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "youremail"

eval "$(ssh-agent -s)"

Starts the SSH agent and sets the necessary environment variables in the current terminal session.
