+git clone https://github.com/username/repository.git
+```
+
+### Check repository status
+```bash
+git status
+```
+
+### Add files to staging
+```bash
+git add filename.mdx
+# or add all files
+git add .
+```
+
+### Commit changes
+```bash
+git commit -m "Your commit message"
+```
+
+### Push changes to remote repository
+```bash
+git push origin main
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+<AccordionGroup>
+  <Accordion title="Command 'git' not found">
+    This means Git is not installed or not in your system's PATH.
+
+    **Solution**: 
+    1. Reinstall Git following the steps above
+    2. Restart your terminal or command prompt
+    3. On Windows, make sure Git was added to your PATH during installation
+  </Accordion>
+
+  <Accordion title="Permission denied (publickey)">
+    This error occurs when trying to push to a remote repository without proper authentication.
+
+    **Solution**: 
+    1. Set up SSH keys for your Git hosting service
+    2. Or use HTTPS with your username and password/token
+    3. Check your repository's remote URL with `git remote -v`
+  </Accordion>
+
+  <Accordion title="Git commands are slow on Windows">
+    This can happen due to Windows Defender or antivirus software scanning.
+
+    **Solution**: 
+    1. Add your Git repositories folder to Windows Defender exclusions
+    2. Consider using Git Bash instead of Command Prompt
+    3. Enable Git's built-in file system cache: `git config --global core.preloadindex true`
+  </Accordion>
+</AccordionGroup>
+
