  • Quiz 13
  • Branching Workflow Types25:23

    Explore branching workflow types in Azure DevOps, including trunk based development, git flow, and forking. Understand how master or main, feature branches, and pull requests drive merges and production deployment.

  • Quiz 14
  • Git Hooks17:50

    Learn how git hooks enforce quality by scripting validations in the hooks folder, like commit message standards and work-item ID checks, with client-side and server-side examples for Azure DevOps workflows.

  • Quiz 15

Requirements

  • Basic understanding of software development concepts — no prior Git or Azure DevOps experience is required; this course builds from the ground up
  • A free Azure DevOps account is required — account creation is covered at the start of the course
  • Git must be installed on your system — installation steps are covered in the course
  • A computer with internet access (Windows, macOS, and Linux are all supported)

Description

Source control is one of the highest-weighted domains in the AZ-400: DevOps Engineer Expert certification — and in real Azure DevOps teams, it is where collaboration either works smoothly or breaks down. This course gives you both: structured coverage of Git and Azure Repos aligned to the AZ-400 source control domain, and the practice tests to prove your knowledge holds.

The only other dedicated Git + Azure Repos course on Udemy at this level is a 2-hour beginner crash course with a single quiz. This course goes significantly further — into advanced Git operations, professional branching workflows, Git hooks, enterprise branch policies, and practice tests that validate real understanding across every topic.

This course covers the Git and Azure Repos domain of the AZ-400 certification in depth — source control strategy, repository management, branching, pull requests, and advanced Git operations. It is designed as targeted, focused preparation for this domain and as a practical reference for real Azure DevOps environments.

What you will master

Git and Azure Repos Fundamentals — Understand the role of Git in the development lifecycle and how Azure Repos compares to GitHub and other Git platforms. Set up repositories in Azure DevOps, configure remotes, and establish the foundation for professional source control workflows from day one.

Core Git Operations in Azure DevOps — Clone, commit, push, pull, fetch, and sync code between local environments and Azure Repos. Understand how commits build a history, how remote tracking works, and how teams coordinate changes through a shared repository without stepping on each other.

Branching Strategies and Workflow Types — Create and manage branches in Azure Repos using industry-standard branching workflows: GitFlow, feature branching, release branching, and trunk-based development. Understand when each strategy applies and how to implement it correctly for your team's delivery cadence.

Pull Requests and Code Review Workflows — Create, review, and complete pull requests in Azure Repos with proper code review practices. Understand how pull request workflows enforce quality gates and facilitate team collaboration on shared codebases.

Branch Policies and Repository Security — Apply branch policies in Azure Repos to enforce required reviewers, build validation, comment resolution, and merge strategies. Configure repository permissions for individuals and teams. These are the controls that protect production branches in enterprise Azure DevOps environments.

Advanced Git Operations — Apply rebase, reset, revert, checkout, and stash with confidence. These are the commands that separate developers who use Git from developers who understand it — and they appear consistently in AZ-400 exam scenarios and real team situations.

Squash Merges and Merge Conflict Resolution — Implement squash merge strategies for clean, readable commit histories and resolve merge conflicts systematically — without panic and without losing work.

Git Hooks — Automate pre-commit and post-commit checks using Git hooks to enforce standards, run validations, and improve code quality before changes reach the shared repository. Git hooks are a distinguishing topic that the only other Azure Repos course on Udemy does not cover.

Git Tags, Gitignore, and Repository Management — Implement tagging strategies for release management, configure .gitignore for clean repositories, and manage repository settings and permissions at scale.

AZ-400 Practice Tests — Validate your Git and Azure Repos knowledge across all course domains with included practice tests mapped to the AZ-400 source control objectives. These go far beyond the single final quiz offered by competing courses in this category.

Your transformation:

By completing this course, you will be able to manage professional Git and Azure Repos workflows in real Azure DevOps environments — from repository setup through advanced operations, branch policies, and automated Git hooks.
