YouTube recommendations brought me here, and I certainly am not disappointed. Thanks for an informative yet concise explanation!

It’s always great to gain a deeper understanding of something I already use daily. Thank you for this! ❤

DUUUUDE, I was not expecting to understand git in one video. There are still the specific commands to learn but this video created a solid start for me. Thank you!

[ajaygovinds]

Glad I came across this video of yours, amazing quality in the narration. Keep doing more. Thanks for your efforts ❤👏

[oliverxie]

It is super nice to have a short video to dive deep into the underlying principle of git. especially, the objects and how merge and rebase work. Thanks a lot for the video!

[MrRenlmaxim]

A great, concise and well animated explanation. Great job!
PS: Guess you've been blessed by the youtube algorithm, and deservedly so. I'll watch your other videos too.

Recommendations brought me here too. I like the use of visuals and your details! Keep it up!

I'd just like to say thanks for making this video so visually simple. That includes thanks for not including a load of stock footage of different groups of youngish people inspecting laptop screens together, and extra bonus thanks for not cutting out to 1.5 second clips from Marvel MCU movies every 15 seconds. It's actually refreshing to see a Youtube video that's directly, consitently focused on communicating knowledge about its topic.

[gertrudestrawberry]

Thank you! I've been using git for over a decade and you've finally made it clear!

If I ran the internet, this video would be shown at the top of any "how to" search about git.
