Git on Linux Simplified | How to Setup Your First Repository and Use Version Control

In this video, we'll take a look at using git for version control of files. Git is handy for keeping track of edits to code and gives you the ability to clone other repositories, or publish to your own. Git is very popular with developers and programers, but can be used for almost anything text-related.

👌🏽💎 you my friend are invaluable...I have progressed from not knowing much at all...to finding out how to break things and always finding my way back here for a bit of clarity on logical order and sequences of doing things...& it's like magic I fix something and then something else pops up 😂 nonetheless I'm learning using tinycore on a 27 year old gateway as my system I can break and not be too distraught 😅...🙏🏼👨🏽‍💻 this all makes me better on my main linux distro which I approach with caution when it comes to tinkering..lol🙌🏽

Thanks, I just shifted to linux from windows and was confused about setting up the token. Can I add my token to the config file so that I don't have to copy paste it again?

Hi linode thanks for the lesson. However, I do need help on getting git to integrate in Jenkins even after I see it in /use/bin/git and my git.exe $PATH in /usr/lib/git-core. It just won't run.
I think maybe git.exe is missing? Or what to do?
Please help 🆘

I only take issue with what's happening lately "moving from master to the term main" -Master, develop, staging, these are industry standards anything else is pure political correctness which can not only cause needless headaches, statistically it will cause problems in the real world. It's called a "master branch" which means ONE branch, singular, and has ZERO to do with anything else. "Main" has an entirely different purpose in programming.
