Windows Setup

[!info] This note is step-by-step instructions to clone this repository, that is, my notebook to your own Windows PC. If you only want to create your own vault, see create-your-own-vault.

Clone This Vault

1. Create a GitHub account if you don't have one already.

2. Install Git

winget install Git.Git

3. Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/ZaneMeyers/zmVault

Important

If you're reading this, you probably have push access to this repo. Please do me a favor and don't use it. It won't be destructive, but it may be annoying.

Discarding Changes

If you make unintended changes to this vault:

cd zmVault
git reset --hard
git pull origin main

Apparently this doesn't work. The most straightforward solution is to delete the folder and re-clone.

Setup Obsidian

1. Download and install Obsidian
