Git Help

Here are some resources to help you with Git. Of course, you don't have to read all of this :) I have put a ★ next to the ones I think should be understood.

Introductions, to help you get started:

• Git for the Lazy
• Everyday Git in 20 Commands or so
• A Note About Git Commit Messages ★
• Git Flow (helps with branching, but not needed) and a helpful Introduction to Git Flow. Even if you don't use git flow, it is a good overview of a nice way of managing branches. ★

Advanced:

• Git for Computer Scientists gives an overview of how the internal graphs of Git work.
