Steps to install Git on a Server

 

Here are the steps to install Git on a server using yum and create a bare repository:

1. Update the yum package index:

sudo yum update

2. Install the Git package:

sudo yum install git

3. Create a bare repository in the /opt/beta.git directory:

cd /opt
mkdir beta.git
cd beta.git
git init --bare

4. Verify that the repository was created successfully:

ls -al

You should see a directory named .git. This is the bare repository.

Here is an explanation of the steps above:

• The yum update command updates the yum package index, which is a list of all the available packages on the server.
• The yum install git command installs the Git package.
• The cd /opt command changes the current directory to the /opt directory.
• The mkdir beta.git command creates a directory named beta.git in the /opt directory.
• The cd beta.git command changes the current directory to the beta.git directory.
• The git init --bare command creates a bare repository in the current directory.
• The ls -al command lists all the files and directories in the current directory.
