Git is the most widely used version control system in the world, essential for modern software development.
Purpose
Git is a distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. It allows multiple developers to work on the same codebase simultaneously without conflicts, tracks changes over time, and provides mechanisms for collaboration and code review.
This course will teach you how to use Git effectively for collaborative development, with a focus on:
- Understanding Git fundamentals - repositories, commits, and basic operations
- Working with remotes - GitHub and GitLab for collaborative development
- Mastering branches - creating, merging, and rebasing branches
- Implementing best practices - feature branch workflow and merge requests
Whether you’re a solo developer or part of a large team, understanding Git will help you manage your code more effectively, collaborate with others seamlessly, and maintain a clean, organized project history.
