Getting Started with GIT

Begin your getting started with git journey as the instructor welcomes you to the course and leads you through the learning experience.

Understand what Git is as a tool to track changes, and how a hosting service enables sharing the project among stakeholders.

Explore git concepts by cloning and downloading repositories, tracking file changes, committing locally, and pushing to remote, with guidance on using different git commands across branches.

Learn to create and initialize a git repository from the browser and command line, configure your user name and email, clone projects, and view commit history.

Explore managing local changes with git by staging files, writing commits with messages, inspecting status, and understanding branches like master, then working with a remote repository in the next lecture.

Update your local git work and publish changes to a remote repository by pushing commits and pulling updates. Create, switch, and manage branches with tracking to origin.

Learn how to manage parallel work with Git branches and tags, switch between master and feature branches, commit and push changes, and mark releases for testing.

Explore merging between master and feature branches by creating pull requests, reviewing diffs, updating files and scripts, and resolving merge conflicts before final merge.

Explore the history of a file in a git repository by viewing commits and authors in reverse chronological order, using git log and git blame to inspect changes.

Undo changes in git by resetting the last commit and restaging files, then clean untracked files and directories with git clean to keep the repository tidy.

Log in to GitHub, create a My Demo repository with a basic file, clone it locally, commit and push, create and switch a branch, and review the master history.

Master git fundamentals by initializing a repository, managing local and remote repositories, and performing branching, tagging, and merging while reviewing commit history.
