3. Install Git for Windows from https://git-for-windows.github.io
4. Launch an Elevated (run as Admin) PowerShell ISE (don't use just PowerShell) and run:

# Configure Git
git config --global user.name <your name>
git config --global user.email <your email address>
git config --global push.default simple

# Install Posh-Git
Install-Module -Name posh-git -Force # step 1 was a needed update so we could have the Install-Module cmdlet

# Add Posh to PowerShell profile to get the Git prompt
Add-PoshGitToProfile

# Make a directory for you GitHub projects
cd ~ # change directory to the home/profile directory
mkdir .\Documents\GitHub
cd .\Documents\GitHub

# Clone your copy of my code in you new GitHub folder
git clone https://github.com/<your_account>/IFT220_Lab2.git

# Look at what the clone command did.

5. See the files in the repo for instructions on what to change
   1. Use psedit to edit in PowerShell ISE, or use a text editor
6. Add the changed file(s) to the commit (git add <filename> or git add -A)
7. Commit (git commit -m "a note about what you did")
