# Install Git

Some of the steps you must take to set up a Plutus environment require you to have Git installed.

# Arch Linux

On Arch Linux, I installed it using pacman.

sudo pacman -S git

Enter y and press Enter when asked if you want to continue with installation.

# Ubuntu

If you use Ubuntu, Git may already be installed. Try displaying its version.

git --version

If you receive an error that git is not installed, you'll need to install it.

Update your local package index.

sudo apt update

Install Git

sudo apt install git
