Creates a new ssh key using the provided email:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]"

Then copy it to the clipboard:

sudo apt-get install xclip

xclip -sel clip < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Then go to https://github.com/account/ssh and clic "Add another public key" and paste the clipboard and press "Add" Key".

And now try to connect to github to see if everything is working:

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

ssh [email protected]

If everything goes fine then you should install git:

sudo aptitude install git-core git-gui git-doc

git config --global user.name "Name Last Name"

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"

git config --global github.user your_username

Now get your token at GitHub -> Click “Account Settings” > Click “Account Admin.”

git config --global github.token XXXXXXX

The next thing that you should do is to get a local copy of the repository, but first you must create a fork of the master branch.
