when ever I try to run nano in git CMD or git Bash it wont run. git CMD gives me a normal windows error of, 'nano' is not recognized as an internal or external command, and Bash gives me an error of, bash: nano: command not found

7,926 PointsHi Dane, Thank you for your response. I went back in the video and found a link where he shows us how to set up git for windows and nano is not installed on windows so when using windows you should type notepad in place of nano.

If you are using windows or Mac Os (Possibly), then nano won't exist on your computer, so calling it will not work. If you are on a linux distro, then check with your distro's package installation instructions and install nano for this to work.
