Git & GitHub, Step by Step from the Principles - Fundamental Git

Step by step from the principles

Git vs GitHub❓

💻 Git

Git is a program that manages code versions. Just like creating save points in a game, Git allows you to create save points for your code and return to any point in time you want. Not only that, but it also uses a powerful feature called 'branches' to help multiple colleagues work on a single project simultaneously.

🌐 GitHub

First, it is important to point out that Git and GitHub are completely different concepts. Just as baseball and soccer are different, Git and GitHub are also different from each other. Git is a tool for version control, and GitHub is a space where those versions can be stored. That is why GitHub is often compared to Google Drive or Dropbox.

Learn Git & GitHub properly, all at once.

Everyone will agree on the importance of Git. No matter what we create, we always end up using Git. Therefore, you must understand Git properly. If you simply memorize commands like a machine, you will eventually end up wandering around searching through blogs. Learn it properly all at once, from the basics to the principles. I can confidently say that after taking 'Fundamental Git,' you will be able to solve 99% of errors on your own.

Curriculum

Clearly learn the basic concepts of Git and GitHub, and discover the principles behind how Git manages versions.

💻 Section 2: Git Installation and Setup
Learn how to install Git and configure the basic environment to get ready to use Git.

📝 Section 3: Basic Commands and Status Management
Learn the key commands for creating versions and gain a deep understanding of what happens inside Git.

📂 Section 4: Repository Status
Git manages versions through three types of storage. Let's learn the commands to check the status of each repository and how they work.

🎯 Section 5: HEAD
Learn the concept of HEAD, which allows you to revert code to a specific point in time, and master how to handle HEAD's relative position.

🌿 Section 6: Branch
Learn how to collaborate with colleagues using branches, and master how to handle them proficiently by understanding their internal structure.

🔗 Section 7: Merge
Learn how to merge work from other branches into your own and how to resolve conflict errors that may occur during the merge process.

⚠ Section 8: Precautions When Handling Branches
Branches are a powerful feature, but they can be tricky. Let's learn how to prevent mistakes and use them effectively when handling branches.

🔄 Section 9: Rebase
Learn the Rebase feature, which is essential for advanced developers, and master how to clean up branches and resolve conflict errors.

⏪ Section 10: Reverting to a Previous State (Reset vs Revert)
Learn the differences and usage of the reset and revert commands to return code to a desired point in time, and understand the underlying principles of each command to choose the right one for any situation.

📤 Section 11: Uploading and Downloading Code (GitHub)
Learn how to upload and download code to and from a remote server, understand the principles behind the process, and gain a deep understanding of the interaction between GitHub and Git.

🤝 Section 12: Collaborating (Git Flow)

🚀 Section 13: Advanced Remote
Learn in detail about remote-related functions and principles for advanced developers, and master advanced remote management methods required in practice.

📂 Section 14: File Management
Learn how file deletions and name changes are managed as versions. Additionally, learn how to exclude specific files from version control using the gitignore file and understand the underlying principles, enabling you to respond skillfully to various error situations.

📝 Section 15: Changing Commit History
Learn how to modify commit history to organize your project's version history neatly. Beyond simple methodology, we will dive deep into the principles behind it through easy analogies.

Target Audience

❓ With so many Git courses out there, why was "Root Git" created?

While working as a programming instructor, I realized one thing. The fact was that many students only memorized Git commands without properly understanding how they work. As a result, they could not handle Git efficiently and frequently encountered situations where they could not even resolve simple errors. It broke my heart to see students wandering through blogs for over an hour over problems that could have been solved with just 10 minutes of proper study.

At that moment, I made up my mind.

"I must teach students the principles of how Git works properly!"

After six months of research, I developed a diagram that makes the working principles of Git easy to understand in just 10 minutes, and I turned it into lecture materials.

"Will this diagram really be easy to understand?"
"Can it sufficiently explain all cases?"
"Will it be able to solve the errors students face?"

As I answered these questions myself, I revised and revised the drawings. After working on them so much that the iPad note-taking app started to lag, I was finally able to complete the clear and easy-to-understand final illustrations.

Afterwards, when I taught Git using those illustrations, the students' reactions were truly amazing.

💬 "I've taken several Git courses, but I learned the most in this one hour!"
💬 "This is the clearest explanation of Git I've ever heard. Seriously."
💬 "Ah, now I get it!"

I felt a great sense of accomplishment seeing my students master Git in just one hour.

Have you taken a Git course but are still confused?
Have you felt frustrated because it's difficult to resolve errors?
Are you wasting time trying to find solutions on blogs?

Then you've come to the right place. 👏

After taking this course, your worries about Git will completely disappear. I am 100% confident. If you do not see the expected results, I will give you a full refund.
