  • Are you working with Git regularly but still get uncomfortable and anxious when things get a little out of hand? We are going to visualize the fundamental concepts and tools so that we will have a clear image of what’s going on behind the scenes and overcome our fear of Git once and for all.

    The following questions will be thoroughly answered throughout the course:

  • What does detached HEAD mean and how to get rid of it?

  • What is the difference between untracked and tracked files?

  • What is the difference between tracked files themselves?

  • Have you heard of unmodified, modified and staged?

  • When you merge branches, why sometimes you end up with a new commit and sometimes not?

  • Which leads to fast-forwarding vs three-way merging

  • What is the difference between merge and rebase?

  • What is the difference between fetch and pull?

  • What is reset and what is the difference between soft, mixed, and hard reset (what actually happens behind the scene when we run these commands)?
