How install Git?

I just installed Aeon and want to install Git.

What would be the recommended way of doing so, since it’s not a GUI application, or would I need Distrobox for that (never used it before)?

Thanks

@wentrel yes, distrobox https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Aeon/SoftwareInstall and https://en.opensuse.org/Distrobox

So once git is installed inside the (default) container, how do I make the git command always available outside of it, on my host machine?

@wentrel You export it https://en.opensuse.org/Distrobox#Distrobox_export and https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/usage/distrobox-export.md

It worked, very neat.
Thanks!

Semi-related (I don’t want to create a new thread):
My host is missing the package libgthread-2_0-0. I installed it in the container.
But since it’s not an app/program (like git), how do I make that package available on the host?
I assume distrobox-export is not used for that purpose.

@wentrel I would install it… transactional-update pkg install libgthread-2_0-0 then transactional-update apply should sort it.
