Follow the steps below to configure your Iguana X Git settings with GitHub.
In Iguana X, go to Settings > Git. For each step, click on the
button to set your configurations.
STEP 1: Author Info - Enter a name and email to be used to label your commits
Git requires a name and email to label your commits. We recommend you use an email address recognized by your GitHub so you can trace your commits in it.

We also use this Author Info to help Identify your Iguana so if you have problems we can help you!
STEP 2: Cloud Service - Choose GitHub
Select GitHub from the dropdown.

STEP 3: Cloud Token - In GitHub, generate a personal access token for Iguana to authenticate
STEP 4: Key Pair SSH - Generate a public-private key pair for SSH authentication
In Key Pair SSH, use the Generate button to have Iguana generate a private key pair for you. For more information on SSH see: How does Iguana X use SSH?

STEP 5: Cloud SSH - Register your public key with GitHub
In Cloud SSH, click Register to have Iguana register your public key with Github.

All Done!
You can see your registered public key in your GitHub account Settings > SSH and GPG keys (under Access)
