I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit OS on my local machine. I want to setup/install Git GUI on this machine. Then I'm having one repository at GitLab that I need to make clone of on my machine, then I should be able to do normal git operations like pull, push, commit, etc. with Git GUI.  Can someone please provide me step by step instructions from installing this Git GUI on my machine to execute normal Git operations?  Thanks in advance.

I would like to build my own local repository on my LAN, so that machines on the LAN can update and upgrade from it. I want to download the packages and store them on my local server so that I can update, upgrade, install, etc, from it without using the internet.

I am going to change my machine: from a laptop with Ubuntu to another laptop where I am going to install Ubuntu...  I am quite happy with the current system, what I am afraid of is having to rebuild everything from 0.  So what do people often do to clone an Ubuntu system? That may include the data, packages, shortcut settings, etc...

How to install  on Ubuntu?   Is there a way to use apt-get install?   I only have command line access to my server. How do I install Anaconda on Ubuntu 14.04 from the command line?

I would like to ask a very basic question but I have never thought about it before. Well, when someone installs an application from terminal, he has to add the repository first, right? On the other side, when someone installs an application from the Ubuntu Software Center, is the repository then added automatically?  I am asking those questions to figure out this: When I run update and then upgrade, will this application be upgraded or not? Is the result same in two options?

I have Git version 1.5.4.3 installed, but I think this must be an old version. I'm running Ubuntu Hardy 8.04. I need to install at least version 1.6 to get a Git GUI to work. How do I upgrade my installation?  Update: I managed to upgrade my installation of Git, but I also realized that my version of Ubuntu was old so I upgraded to the newest version, which automatically gave me access to newer packages (including Git).

Is there any way to temporarily disable GUI (X server) when booting an Ubuntu 16.04 LTS installation?  There are various guides advising to add text option onto the line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub or directly on the linux line in GRUB. These methods work well in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS but I always end up in LightDM when trying them in 16.04 LTS.

Are there Apple guidelines for where user shell tools in Mountain Lion should be installed? Some (e.g. TeX, or Apple's Git) end up in /usr, and others (e.g. X11) seem to end up in /opt (sometimes with a symlink from /usr), while others (e.g., Git) end up in /user/local, and I wonder what the difference is, and whether one is preferred over the other.

This is an update of my earlier question today. That title ("user rights to /usr/share") was unfortunately misleading.  I have a single user system, so I'm a sysadmin by default. Translation: I do not know Linux well enough to do a TeX Live install safely.  I've used TeX Live for several years, but always installed it as sudo. My OS is Ubuntu 19.04. I'd now like to do the TeX Live install as a regular user, because that's what the TeX Live documentation recommends. Let's call that user Bob.  After downloading install-tl-unx.tar.gz and extracting the install-tl script, I start the installation as user, by running: perl install-tl -gui. I get a permissions error saying that Bob cannot install to /usr/local/texlive/2019.  Here's my question. What is the Linux statement, I need to execute as sudo to give me the rights needed to complete this installation?

I have an Ubuntu server running on EC2 (which I didn't install myself, just picked up an AMI). So far I'm using putty to work with it, but I am wondering how to work on it with GUI tools (I'm not familiar with Linux UI tools, but I want to learn). Silly me, I'm missing the convenience of Windows Explorer.  I currently have only Windows at home. How do I set up GUI tools to work with a remote server? Should I even do this, or should I stick to the command line? Do the answers change if I have a local linux machine to play with?

I have ubuntu 12.04 running in a virtual machine on virtual box.  Its existence is mainly as a 'toy' to play about with Ubuntu, so for this reason I wanted the GUI (is that what 'Dash' is in ubuntu 12.04?  Anyway...)  One thing I am currently using this machine for is a LAMP server.     I use 'gedit' to edit my files, but because I haven't correctly set permissions yet I just open it with sudo in terminal.  Just now, to try to simplify this process I created a shell script on the desktop with a very simple job - sudo gedit  I can't help thinking there must be an even more obvious way to open gedit as root from the GUI than this.  So is there?  Edit:  I just 'improved' my script by replacing sudo with gksudo.  Now I don't have to have a terminal window open while gedit is open.   So I guess this is quite convenient for now :)   It would be good, for the sake of knowledge, to know if this is anything close to how the more seasoned ubuntu users would do this type of thing.

Is there any equivalent to TortoiseSVN but for Ubuntu / Git? I'd like to integrate Git commands to Nautilus.

I read the Git manual, FAQ, Git - SVN crash course, etc. and they all explain this and that, but nowhere can you find a simple instruction like:  SVN repository in: svn://myserver/path/to/svn/repos  Git repository in: git://myserver/path/to/git/repos  git-do-the-magic-svn-import-with-history \ svn://myserver/path/to/svn/repos \ git://myserver/path/to/git/repos   I don't expect it to be that simple, and I don't expect it to be a single command. But I do expect it not to try to explain anything - just to say what steps to take given this example.
