• Write a proper .gitignore and manage the staging area like a pro
• Master branching and merging through three guided, hands on walkthroughs
• Resolve merge conflicts using both merge and rebase without panic
• Work with remote repositories: clone, push, pull, and fetch

• Walk through a complete README workflow end to end
• Fix mistakes safely with stash, amend, revert, reset, and diff
• Choose the right branching strategy for your team

Why this course works

Short theory lectures are paired with code along exercises and practice labs, so you are always applying what you learn in your own terminal. Every command is taught in the context of a real workflow, not as isolated trivia.
