Installation 🚀

1. Clone the Repository:

   • Clone the gitswap repository to your local machine using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/vinugawade/gitswap.git

2. Move the Script to a Global Location:

   • Move the script to a global location on your system using the following command:

   sudo mv /location/of/gitswap /usr/local/bin

3. Set Script Permissions:

   • Allow everyone to execute the script by choosing one of the following commands:

   sudo chmod +x /location/of/gitswap

   OR

   sudo chmod 0755 /location/of/gitswap

4. Add to $PATH:

   • Add /usr/local/bin to your $PATH. If you use the Bash shell, execute the command:

   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

   OR

   export PATH=$PATH:/location/of/gitswap

   This will set the variable name, potentially in a file like ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc, or ~/.profile. If you're unsure where to put it, ~/.bashrc is a good choice.

You may need to restart your shell for this to take effect.
