About the Course

In this course, you’ll learn how to keep track of the different versions of your code and configuration files using a popular version control system (VCS) called Git. We'll also go through how to set up an account with a service called GitHub so that you can create your very own remote repositories to store your code and configuration. Throughout this course, you'll learn about Git's core functionality so you can understand how and why it’s used in organizations. We’ll look into both basic and more advanced features, like branches and merging. We'll demonstrate how having a working knowledge of a VCS like Git can be a lifesaver in emergency situations or when debugging. And then we'll explore how to use a VCS to work with others through remote repositories, like the ones provided by GitHub. By the end of this course, you'll be able to store your code's history in Git and collaborate with others in GitHub, where you’ll also start creating your own portfolio! In order to follow along and complete the assessments, you’ll need a computer where you can install Git or ask your administrator to install it for you....

Awesome and well balanced course for working professionals. Clear explanations and coverage of typical use case scenarios. The labs were manageable and did not require a lot of time to complete them.

Excellent kick starter for Git and Github. Lab 3 hasn't been updated and in Lab 4 you would benefit from knowing Python. For all the rest, it is an excellent preparation course. Thank you!

The course was a great into to Git and Github. My one negative feedback is that the graded assessments (labs) were far too easy and didn't really cover everything that was discussed.

Very interesting course. As a suggestion you could tell something about the add-on GitHub Desktop that is really easy to use and sometimes more used than the command prompt...

Videos where very in-depth, really easy to understand. Qwiki tests seemed a bit un-related to the videos sometimes and only touched on a small amount of the material.

It will nice to have a diagram drawing out what the picture looks like in the process of rebase. Also, when using squash option, which commit is previous on.

Could be improved by relating on each command directly with GitHub GUI while doing... to better grasp what we doing with each command backendly/frontendly

Difficult subject matter to teach clearly. You did a good job. Some more diagrams of how Git / Rebase / Branches would have helped understanding easier!

Content could have been better and less confusing with the help of more visuals explaining how the graph/branches are progressing at each step and command

The part corresponding to rebase is not clear, please make a new example from A to Z, showing it more clearly, the rest is perfect! Thank you, Google.

Makes sense to learn how to use this, though especially in the case of GitHub you may want to update to account for security changes coming in August.

A well-balanced course. The quizzes and labs come with very good feedback whether the answer is right or wrong to give an even better explanation.
