 === Git Errors ===
+A common error that students may run into when developing on the SoCS Linux servers using VS Code is not being able to authenticate on git when cloning or pushing (with a "missing or invalid credentials" error). This error occurs when using git through a terminal opened within VS Code due to a conflict between the git package on the server and the authentication handler of VS Code's Git extension. To resolve this:
+  - Open VS Code.
+  - Click on "File" on the top left, then "Preferences", and "Settings".
+  - Using the search bar, find "git.terminalAuthentication"
+  - Uncheck the checkbox.
+  - Git commands should now authenticate correctly. If they do not, reconnect to the server using Remote-SSH.
