Introduction11:08
In this section, we will learn how to install Git, set up a GitHub account, and configure Git on your local machine to start managing code repositories efficiently and collaborating online using GitHub.

Push Code to GitHub18:32
In this section, we will learn how to push code from a local Git repository to GitHub, including staging changes, committing them, connecting to a remote repository, and using the git push command to upload your project files.
Git Status Command8:38
In this section, we will learn how to use the git status command to check the current state of the working directory and staging area, helping us track changes, view untracked or modified files, and understand what needs to be committed.
Git Log5:37
In this section, we will learn how to use the git log command to view the commit history of a repository, including details such as commit IDs, author names, dates, and messages, which helps in tracking changes and understanding the project's development timeline.
Git Clone2:46
In this section, we will learn how to use the git clone command to create a local copy of a remote repository, allowing us to easily collaborate on projects, access existing code, and begin working with the repository on our own machine.

Group Leader Code Push5:42
In this section, we will learn how to perform a Group Leader Code Push, where the group leader pushes the final, approved code to the shared repository. This ensures all changes are properly integrated and updated in the main branch for collaborative projects.
Code Push by Group Member4:57
In this section, we will learn how to perform a Code Push by a Group Member, where individual team members push their changes to the shared repository. This ensures that each member's updates are synced and integrated into the project’s codebase for collaboration.
Create and Push Branch by Group Member5:55
In this section, we will learn how to create a new branch and push it to the shared repository as a group member. This allows individual contributors to work on isolated features or fixes without affecting the main codebase, promoting efficient collaboration.
Git Merge3:25
In this section, we will learn how to use the git merge command to combine changes from different branches into one. This helps integrate features or fixes from separate branches into the main codebase, ensuring smooth collaboration and maintaining project continuity.

Branch Creating & Swicthing Commands2:54
In this section, we will learn how to use commands to create and switch between Git branches. This allows you to manage multiple development tasks independently, making it easier to work on features or fixes without affecting the main codebase.
Git Ignore3:06
In this section, we will learn how to use a .gitignore file to specify which files or directories Git should ignore. This helps prevent unnecessary files, like log files or temporary data, from being tracked in the repository, keeping the project clean and efficient.

Requirements

No Experience Needed. We will guide you through GIT & GITHUB the in the easiest possible way. Just programming acumen.
