In this module, you will get hands-on experience working with Git and its advanced concepts.

DevOps for Developers

Git is one of the most widely used version control tools, and is something that every developer should become comfortable with. In this module, you will get hands-on experience working with Git so that when it comes time to use it, you’ll be ready.

You’ll start by learning some of the more fundamental concepts such as initializing a Git repository, adding files to a repository, and how to commit changes. You’ll also learn how to clone a repository, and how to create branching.

You’ll then make your way to some more advanced concepts like Git stash, cherry-picking, working with multiple repositories, pushing code, and a lot more.

By the end of this module, you will have a proficient and working knowledge of Git which will serve you well throughout your career.

Git and GitHub

Previously, I showed the `git rebase` command and how it can be used to move or rebase a set of commits.

# Topics covered
You will cover:

- `git rebase -i`
- `git rev-list`

By the end of it, you will be comfortable with the idea of squashing commits and perhaps consider how you will safely use it in your own projects.
