Process Skills Practiced

Background

For the impatient, you may skip down to the [Directions] section and get started. If you would prefer an overview of Git first, there are some great introductory videos on Git's site: http://git-scm.com/ . Namely:

Git Basics: What is Version Control?

If you are new to version control, or just want to gain a deeper understanding of it, this is 6 minutes of your life well spent.

Watch the video

Git Basics: What is Git?

This 8 minute video gives you a quick overview of git, why it exists, who it serves, what it can do, and explains some of its advantages.

Watch the video

Git Basics: Get Going with Git

This 4.5 minute video gives you an overview of installing and configuring git, as well as how to set up your first git repository. You could try to follow along and attempt each step, but I recommend just observing for now and appreciating the simplicity of setup. Later you'll complete a tutorial that will have you perform these same steps.

Watch the video

Git Basics: Quick Wins with Git

Still not convinced? Need more reasons to use Git? Whether you are gearing up for a water cooler debate about version control systems, or you just want to get a better understanding of the Git philosophy and the features that implement those philosophies, this 5 minute delivers.
