[Whonix-users] Installing / Using Git

[readjust]

How does one use git from whonix-workstation?

There appears to be a file at /usr/bin/git, but it is owned by root and 
doesn't appear to work. Is it safe to `apt install git`?


user at host:~$ which git
/usr/bin/git
user at host:~$ /usr/bin/git
The program 'git' is currently not installed.  To run 'git' please ask 
your administrator to install the package 'git'

user at host:~$ cat /usr/bin/git
#!/bin/bash
