Add user to gitlab

Generate ssh key pair (private and public)

To be able to use Git via SSH or https you need an SSH key-pair

open git bash shell

From bash
ssh-keygen 

Now you have a keypair stored in your userprofiles home adress (c:\users\username\.ssh)

Set Git username and password
$ git config --global user.name "Current User"
$ git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

Then check that input was correct

Check configuration
$ git config --global --list

git config –global alias.lol ‘log –graph “–pretty=format:%C(auto)%d%Creset%n%C(yellow)%n%Creset %s”‘

git config --global alias.loll 'log --graph "--pretty=format:%C(auto)%d%Creset%n%C(yellow)%h%Creset %s" --all'
