I'm a bit confused. I downloaded all the programs listed on the teachers note but I don't know which one hes using for getting the git clone. I figured its a text editor but it doesn't work when I use sublime text. So what should I be using for this part of the course?

32,861 PointsI agree with jason chan. I would recommend taking it before you take this Express course since you will be doing a lot in the command line. Here is the link: Console Foundations.

It's also worth mentioning that I use Prezto which is a rewritten version of oh-my-zsh that is extremely faster doing autocomplete. Only downside is there seems to be a lot less documentation and tutorials out there on it so it the learning curve is a little steeper if you want to customize it. Start with oh-my-zsh first.
