Description
Are you completely new to version control systems & Git? Are you using Git commands but are not really sure how they work behind the scenes? Are you not able to use full power of Git?
If answer to any of these questions is yes, then this course can help you.
Git is one of the most elegant software tools that I've ever used. This is not just any other version control system. Git will change the way you work for better! Branching is the killer feature of Git that will make you more productive by allowing you to work on multiple things at same time.
To fully harness this power of Git, you need to know more than just commands. You need to understand the concepts behind those commands. Only then can you use Git with confidence and become super productive.
How this course will help you?
We are not starting first lesson with typing commands. We spend some time understanding how version control systems work.
Then we'll see what are the distributed version control systems.
We'll then start working with Git. All important concepts are explained in their own separate lectures along the way just before we use those concepts. You'll learn a new concept and then immediately use those concepts with Git commands. This will teach you the concepts without getting bored.
We then learn what is a remote repository. We'll use Github for our remote repository. So you'll learn how to create a repository on Github, how to clone one from Github, create branches and much more.
This is a growing and a curated course. We've already added more than 5 Hrs of content that will get you started on any project you want. But we've a lot more to say. We'll be adding more advanced Git concepts and more lectures on them.
TL;DR;
At the end of this course you'll be armed with the knowledge about Git commands & concepts behind them, which will allow you to tackle your daily version control tasks with confidence and use Git to its full potential.

We are programmers and artists from UK, USA and South Africa. We met each other over the years during conferences & other work related encounters. We also brought some excellent people we knew to create Coffee Powered Crew.
Coffee Powered Crew is based on only one goal, that is, to create experts in the leading programming languages, technologies and software applications. You can move ahead of competition only if you are an expert in your field. We believe that to be an expert you need to know more than just the syntax and commands. An expert needs to understand the concepts & fundamentals behind the technology or programming language. You need a proper training & experience to become an expert. We hope to help you with the proper training.
We believe a good training needs to provide proper explanation of concepts. That means not just throwing out some word jumble while instructor is typing away the code. A proper focused lecture on each important concept before using & applying that concept makes a good training. We have hired people to create learning aids like animations & drawings to explain concepts properly.
We are hoping that we'll be part of your journey to success and we'll get a chance to help you learn something new that can help you move ahead in your career.
Good Luck!
