Course : The Git & GitHub Bootcamp: The Complete-Practical Guide

This is all about high level overview on Complete Git & GitHub both for the beginners and advanced software professionals.

If any one wants to develop their Open Source Project Or wants to contribute to the Open Source Project then learning Git and GitHub is must. Even if you are a student and wants to become a software developer Or website designer then learning Git and GitHub will help you achieve your goal with well designed infrastructure to get contribution for your project from different developers.

Nowadays many professional developers or designers needs to know how to work with Git and GitHub. Git allows us to record different versions of our project and lets us go back in time and check previous states of the project. As for the GitHub, it’s an online service where we can share our code to the world and also it allows us to collaborate with different developers.

This course consists different sections. We will start from Git basics, where you can learn about how to install Git. We will guide how to use the commands on windows mainly, we will create our first local repository, and you will see how to save different versions of the project, as the snapshots, using commits.

Then we will show you how to go back in time and check the previous states of the project, update them Or delete with help of git checkout, git revert and git reset.

Then we will show you how to work with one of the greatest features of Git, which is branching. We will learn about how to deal with branches locally and also, remotely. We will show you how to merge branches with different methods, and also, how to deal with merge conflicts.

Then we will see about forking and contributing.
