title: Can GitHub for Windows be used locally?
body: <p>I decided that I need some sort of Revision Control Software for my coding purposes, so I installed GitHub for Windows.</p>
  
  <p>Problem is after I add a repository, copy source code in that folder and then click on commit it wants to commit to GitHub web site and is asking me to provide name and email.</p>
  
  <p>Since my intention for using git is only to have revision control for myself and not to collaborate with other developers, I want to host repositories locally on my computer.</p>
  
  <p>Is hosting locally possible and can I do it with GitHub for Windows?</p>
