Git for Professionals Tutorial - Tools & Concepts for Mastering Version Control with Git

Git has the power to make you a better software developer. But you'll have to go beyond the basic "commit, push, pull" to use it effectively! In this course, we'll look at some of the more advanced concepts and tools to make you more productive and confident with Git.

This course focuses on using Git with the command line.

Your voice was so relaxing it put me to sleep but when I woke up I knew how rebasing works, so thank you!

40 minutes sounds like a long time, but it was all jam packed with legitimate information and no fluff. Great video. Watched the whole thing and didn't even notice the time.

My compliments to the speaker. You are a very good teacher. Speaking in a relaxed way makes listening to you a huge pleasure in following your explanations. Top!!!

Phenomenal video. These types of dev tutorials can be so dry but you made it highly visible and explained things simply and clearly. Thanks!

[OKBumble]

Bravo! Not only the action steps to complete certain actions, but "why" and an explanation of what actually happens when you do! Nicely done.

This would have been an excellent 40 minute class in college. The knowledge is there in college, just spread out. this is clear and consise. Thanks for your work!

[cesarsalas]

La forma en que narraste todo el concepto es tan increíble que todo se quedó perfectamente en la mente.

I can concentrate well while watch this video, and understood more quickly and deeply, because of your speaking speed that is more comfortable for me. Thanks a lot.

I'd like to thank you for this video. English is not my native language & I'm a little bit rusty for now, but your spelling is clearly comprehensible. This is great, thanks.

Besides this, your advice is a pure jewel. Thank you.

I'm quite a big fan of "git add -i". This lets you do all the hunk-specific addition, while avoiding having to retype commands

Thank you so much, Guru Ji💖🙏, You are an amazing teacher! You taught us so much useful information in such a short period and made it a lot easier to understand.

I consider myself as pretty profficiant with git,
yet I'm doing this thing where i'm occasionally revisiting known technologies to maybe learn some new things.
Anyhow, just I wanted to say that this 40-minutes long video was ALL WORTH IT just for the sake of learning about the git add with the -p flag to only mark some parts of a file to be included in the commit :) Love it! definitely gonna use it in the future♥ Thank you!

"You can live a happy Git life just using merge", I felt it!

[pranayp]

Thank you so much for this man. Your content is a better than a lot of paid courses out there !

[karansmittal]

The video on branching and now this video. Thank you so much for making these difficult concepts easy for me.

[DavidLindes]

I'm glad you started with git add -p. I always teach that to folks when I can... it's so useful!

[fireballgfx]

I was not aware of the -p parameter who give me the ability to add only a specific part to the staging area.

[giovannichrysostomo]

First I'd like to thank you FCC and thank all your collaborators that bring content to us! I promise that I'll try to get as much experience as I can to get better and I will retribute all your efforts.
