Quick guide in the docs folder is outdated? Or is something wrong with my installation? #18

The guide ( https://github.com/spoiledcat/git-for-unity/blob/main/docs/using/quick-guide.md ) talks about a "Github" window, but I have only "git".
It also shows an "account" tab, which I don't have either - since I'm having problems that I believe are from connection issues (maybe account issues), I'm not sure if the error here lies with the guide or my installation?

Ah, sorry, those docs are outdated, yes. I updated the main readme with quick instructions on how to get setup, see if those help?

I don't really see any updates?

In any case, I think it works now - as you said via Mail, it uses the git credentials system. The problem was, the username your gif-for-unity took was my computer account name - my git name is different.
I can now see the different branches in the remote repository.

Perhaps add a line that says you need to use the same username/email as in that setting. For windows there's an interesting article that helped me figure out what my username for Git really is:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15381198/remove-credentials-from-git
(It talks about removing, but it points towards where its stored in Windows.)
