In general, follow something along these steps:

  1. Install Git
  2. Install Anaconda
  3. Open Anaconda prompt (on windows)
  4. pip install git-gud
  5. mkdir test
  6. cd test
  7. git gud init

Make sure instructions work on windows mac and linux

Note: I can only write a guide for Windows, since I do not have a macOS workstation. Contributions to provide a macOS installation guide are welcome.

We should also recommend the use of Miniconda over Anaconda. Anaconda is much larger and not necessary for Git Gud.

I agree. We can recommend miniconda and say (a full anaconda install will work too)

Relevant, so I'll put this here: I put together a non-WSL solution to installing Git Gud on Windows, feel free to use and adapt: https://open-source-at-illinois.github.io/workshops/git-gg
