# PC-Git Role
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Welcome to the `pc-git` role documentation, part of the `cymais` repository. This role is focused on setting up Git, a widely-used version control system, on personal computers. The role includes tasks for installing Git and configuring global user details.
|
|
|
|
## Role Tasks
|
|
The `main.yml` file in the `pc-git` role consists of the following key tasks:
|
|
|
|
1. **Set Git User Email**: Uses the `ansible.builtin.shell` module to set the global Git user email to a specified value (`{{user_email}}`).
|
|
|
|
2. **Set Git User Name**: Similar to the above, this task sets the global Git user name (`{{user_full_name}}`) using the `ansible.builtin.shell` module.
|
|
|
|
3. **Install Git**: Employs the `community.general.pacman` module to install the Git package, ensuring it's present on the system.
|
|
|
|
