How can I automate the process of installing a 3rd party software installation along with my electron app installation. Is that possible?

Usage scenario.

I want to make an application which deals with github repositories, now I want my users to install my app. In the same time I would like to install git for them. As a background process.

NOTE: I want to automate the process for all the Operating Systems. Is that possible?

It's probably possible, but there isn't going to be an off-the-shelf way to install git on any platform.

I looked at git-it-electron and they ask that you install Github Desktop first.

GitKraken is closed source but they don't require you to install git first as they use NodeGit to interact with repositories. Is that an option for you?
