Introduction

The main goal of this repository is to provide a hands-on introduction training for GIT SCM.

After finishing all the tasks you should be able to perform all the usual GIT operations and study more advance scenarios on your own.

Prerequisites

• Create an account on http://github.org.
  • This is necessary for later tasks related to parallel development (remotes repository).
• Install favorite GIT command line tool.
  • You can use GitHub for Windows which comes with the PowerShell integration.
  • Git for Windows (former mSysGit) can be used from cygwin.
  • Other people use it from PowerShell.
  • Commands should be always the same.
• This training uses PowerShell git somewhere, mSysGit (bash) somewhere else.
• They should be mostly equivalent.

How to use this material

• You can either use it directly from the GitHub web site.
• Or just clone this repository and follow individual tasks.
  • You can use your favorite text editor with MarkDown plugin to see everything formatted.
• Feel free to submit PR to make this more useful/better :-).
