Git should have been installed in the EC2 instance along with Jenkins so that it can pull code from the
GitHub. The above figure shows where the developer has git installed in his local machine so that he
can push the completed code to GitHub then the git in EC2 server along with Jenkins will pull the
code from GitHub.

you can update the /etc/hostname.
