I am working on the Lab 5.1 assignment per the instruction provided. I did install git. am getting a permission denied when I am trying to create a file and adding it to the git project I created after installing git. Any ideas ?

Please mention the course number when posting if it is not obvious as there are several in the boot camp
I gather you are talking about LFS201. I would check where you are working as it sounds like a permission problem. You should be doing everything as a normal user in a directory where you can create files. For example, if your user name in "student", you can do this
in /home/student; or do something like cd /home/student; mkdir labs; cd labs etc. If you accidentally make a directory while doing sudo, you can do something like sudo chown -R student:student . etc.So I can only guess you are working someplace you cannot create files, such as /

Sorry - LFS 201 - Chapter 5. Now I am getting the error as below when I am trying to do a git add
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Was able to resolve and move past it, thanks.

Hi @moulinath , perhaps it would be useful to see a screenshot (for next issue). Also, what user is running the command and also the path.
Many regards,

LFS 201 - Lab 5.1 - Centos 8.
I had to uninstall the VM and then install again to fix something else. Now when I am trying to install git, I am getting :
mc75@localhost /]$ sudo yum install git*
[sudo] password for mc75:
CentOS-8 - AppStream 0.0 B/s | 0 B 00:00
Failed to download metadata for repo 'AppStream'
Error: Failed to download metadata for repo 'AppStream'0 -
This is now resolved. Thanks.

Hi @moulinath , I'm glad that you were able to solve it. Perhaps it would be good idea to share how you solved it, in case that other student gets the same problem.

I think I might have been running it from the wrong directory

I don't think it was a wrong directory, because you should be able to install from any directory. Perhaps it was a connection issue or a dnf cache issue.
Many regards,
