What You'll Learn: Foundations of Version Control: Learn the core concepts behind version control-what it is, why it's essential, and how it can significantly improve your workflow from the very first commit. Hands-on Git Skills: You'll walk through real-world examples: setting up your repository, making commits, branching and merging, and resolving the inevitable merge conflicts. GitHub Integration: Discover how to connect your local projects to GitHub, manage remote repositories, collaborate with others via pull requests, forks, and branching workflows. Solo & Team Scenarios: Practical advice and tutorials for both individual developers-managing your private projects-and for teams-coordinating contributions, maintaining a clean history, and collaborating effectively. Best Practices & Troubleshooting: Learn naming conventions, commit message guidelines, and strategies to recover from common errors, ensuring you maintain a reliable and readable project history.
