STEP 1: Author Info - enter a name and email to be used to label your commits.

Git requires that you give your name and email address. Each Iguana User will need to add their Git credentials the first time they login.

You can pick anything you like but it’s best practice to pick an email address that your Git cloud host will recognize if you want to be able to trace your commits in that cloud host. Cloud host providers like Bitbucket and Github will try and match the email address to known users.

We also use this to help Identify your Iguana so if you have problems we can help you.

STEP 2: Cloud Service - choose the Git cloud service you want to configure

Select from the dropdown, which Git Cloud Service you want to configure.

Iguana X supports the following local and cloud git hosts:

STEP 5: Key Pair SSH - generate a public-private key pair for SSH authentication with your Git Cloud service
