3. Run the test testCloneRepository by clicking on the green arrow next to the class name

1. Open the folder in IntelliJ
2. Navigate to JGitTest (possibly using Ctrl+N and then typing JGitTest and then pressing Enter)
3. Set a breakpoint by clicking on the left margin next to the line number of assertTrue(Files.exists(repoDir));
4. Run the test testCloneRepository in debug mode by clicking on the green bug next to the method name
5. Wait
6. You should see in the console an output similar to INFO: Cloned repository to C:\Users\koppor\AppData\Local\Temp\junit-6524094164121122642
7. Open "git bash"
8. Execute cd "C:\Users\koppor\AppData\Local\Temp\junit-6524094164121122642"
9. You are in the repository folder now and you can use your git tools to inspect the repository

The test testClonePrivateRepository requires credentials.

It requires two environment variables be set:

• GH_USERNAME: Your GitHub username. Example: koppor
• GH_PAT: Your GitHub Personal Access Token. The simplest way to create one is using a classic PAT with the repo scope. Example: ghp_fY4dO1EoFZeKRALy9lmoZ6HlHTdfq4OATQhU

You can set them in IntelliJ by clicking at the top right the green arrow next to the class name, then "Edit Configurations...", then "Configuration" tab, then "Environment variables" and then adding the two variables. You can also it per test run settings:

 JGitTest > testClonePrivateRepository() FAILED
    org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError at JGitTest.java:33

This means, you do not have set the environment variables properly.
