Hello, this question can be noob, but im starting with git.

I have problems understanding the installation process, in the guide, the step 3 tell us to add the .exe to your PATH, exactly, what that means?

Thanks and sorry for the noob question

Hi @elpapi42; thanks for asking. Your $PATH indicates which directories your shell should look in to find the location of an executable when you ask to run it. You can add an entry to your path by placing the following:

export PATH="/path/to/git-sizer:$PATH"

somewhere that your shell will run it (e.g., your ~/.bashrc, or similar). Let /path/to/git-sizer be the directory in which the git-sizer.exe is contained. Since this should all be 🆗, I'm going to close this issue out for now, but don't hesitate to let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!
