start with this:
install git
navigate to the Navigator lievcodescript directory
type 'git init'

that will initialize the directory by creating a few invisible files.
then you will tell git you want to track your livecodescript files.
type 'git add *.livecodescript'

that's it. now after you make changes
type 'git add *.livecodescript'

to see the current file status:
type 'git status'

that doesn't connect you to github yet, but that's your local storage, 
and that's the first step to getting it onto github.
