How can I quickly download files from GitHub?
To quickly download files on GitHub, follow the steps below:
- Open the GitHub website and navigate to the repository page for the desired file.
- Click on the “Clone or download” button to copy the download link.
- Open the terminal or command prompt window on your local computer.
- Execute the download operation by using the “git clone” command followed by the copied download link. For example:
git clone https://github.com/username/repository.git
- Once the download is complete, the file will be saved in the repository folder located in the current working directory.
Additionally, if you only need to download a single file and do not want to clone the entire repository, you can use the wget command or simply click on the file link in your browser to download it.
