Follow these steps to install the .git CLI, connect your repository, and deploy your first project in under 5 minutes.

⬇️ Install the .git CLI

The .git command-line interface is your gateway to instant deployments, automated pipelines, and edge networking.

💡 We support macOS, Linux, and Windows via WSL. Node.js 18+ or Python 3.9+ is required.
bash 
# macOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://cli.git.dev/install | bash

# Or with npm
npm install -g @git/cli

# Verify installation
git --version
.git CLI v2.4.1 (node)

📦 Initialize & Connect

Create a new project or connect an existing repository. .git will auto-detect your framework and configuration.

bash 
# Create new project
git init my-app
cd my-app

# Or connect existing repo
git connect --remote https://github.com/username/repo

# Authenticate with your account
git login
✓ Authenticated as dev@example.com
✓ Repository linked: my-app

⚙️ Configure & Deploy

Define your build commands, environments, and scaling rules. Then push to production with a single command.

bash 
# Auto-generate config
git config init
# Creates .git/config.yaml

# Preview deployment
git deploy --preview
✓ Preview URL: https://my-app-abc123.git.dev

# Deploy to production
git deploy --prod --regions=us,eu,ap
✓ Building...
✓ Running tests (14 passed)
✓ Deployed to 12 edge nodes in 4.2s

✅ Verify & Go Live

Your application is live! Use the dashboard to monitor performance, manage environments, and scale automatically.

bash 
# Open live dashboard
git dashboard
Opening https://dashboard.git.dev/my-app...

# View real-time logs
git logs --follow --prod
