A two-module standalone guide for setting up a new machine for
scientific computing work:
- 01-know-your-machine: hardware and OS inspection. Reads the
physical machine first via macOS/Linux terminals or Windows
PowerShell; a separate section walks through the WSL VM and
how its allocations differ from the host hardware.
- 02-git-basics: pull-focused git workflow. Install, configure
identity, clone a public repo, pull updates. Authentication
and pushing are deferred to a future collaboration module.
Includes top-level WSL.md (copied from cli-walkthrough) for
Windows users who need the Linux environment.
