In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing jotgit on OpenSUSE. jotgit is a handy tool that allows you to track changes made to your files over time. It provides you with an easy way to version control your files, which is essential for any software project.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following:
Jotgit is a Git-based tool, so you need to have Git installed on your system. To ensure you have the latest version of Git, run the following command in the terminal to update the package manager and install Git:

Now that you have Git installed, we can clone jotgit from its GitHub repository.
Open your terminal and navigate to the directory you want to store the jotgit repository in.
Run the following command to clone the jotgit repository:
git clone https://github.com/jdleesmiller/jotgit.git
After cloning, navigate into the jotgit directory:
cd jotgit
Now that you have jotgit cloned, you can install it by running the following command in the terminal:

This command will install the jotgit binary in the /usr/local/bin directory.
To verify that jotgit is installed correctly, run the following command in the terminal:
