You can make better use of Git by downloading the repository onto your

I have no doubt that you will breeze though the process.
I very much doubt it: I downloaded GIT,
told GIT my name ('richmond'),
told GIT my email ('richmondmathew...@gmail.com'),
and then got stuck:

If you're using Windows or OS X, I recommend installing the Github
Desktop client. It'll provide a log-in window and set up all the
necessary keys and credentials for you. https://desktop.github.com/
It also provides a friendly user-interface so that you don't have to

You don't need to do any log-in with Atom. Like most editors, Atom is
completely passive from the git point of view -- it'll display the
status of the code, but doesn't talk to the server or anything like that.
