quite impressive how efficient this guy can be at explaining. it is literally everything you need to know in order to start with git and github

[@Microphunktv-jb3kj]

IKR? I'm literally a beginner in almost everything about code, and now I've successfully implemented Git on a project of mine, and have a GitHub repo on it. I won't share it here for two reasons: 1. It's on Spanish, so most of the people besides my classmates wont understand a thing. 2. I don't want to self promote. But if you guys want to risk yourselves then I could post it here.

[@christophergruendell8089]

I’m probably gonna have to rewatch this like 30 times before I am actually proficient in what he’s speaking about but everything I need is here. Thanks Fireship!

[@KamelJabber1]

dude! seriously, this video was pretty great but the user participation with the sticker is pure genius and a great touch! I feel you have really raised the bar of YT tech and educational content and is on the cutting edge of where the platform can go. I recently used scribe and was blown away by how simple and useful it was. This reminds of that, GG, keep up the good work!

[@Fireship]

Thank you Kamel, really appreciate the feedback. The sticker idea was a risk, but glad to see the pull requests flowing in 😀

git hasnt revolutionized anything.. there were and still is many version control systems out there being used. ive encountered a developer who has coded for 43 years and he has never used git

I didn't Git it

Thanks Jon! I want to tackle at least one general topic per month.

Thanks, me2!

[@me_lvin7068]

Four years later, this git guide is still gold! I originally used git stash as an alternative to git reset.😂I know better now and this video just brings back memories during my first few weeks of learning to code. Cheers mate!

[@dhedarkhcustard]

Another pro tip when comparing changes in VS Code you can select 1 or more lines of code, right click and select "stage selected changes" so you don't have to commit a whole file.

[@jaynj908]

I tried to use git years ago when I tried to learn C++. Years later decided to take up Python and discovered VSC. This video really helped out.

[@StelaTasheva]

I've passed few online tutorials/courses for git/github, spent some time reading documentation and stuff,... What I want to say is that this video is straight to what is basic but really important. Squashed into 10 minutes... awesome

Just came back to thank you for the sticker! Didn't think you will send it all the way across to Romania. Keep up the good work, Jeff. :)

[@stargazer7644]

This is a great tutorial for those who already know how to use git and don't need the tutorial.

[@SCTproductionsJ5]

Man... a KZbin channel I don't put on 1.5x or 2x speed. That's an accomplishment!

[@samuelkatz2463]

It's quite wonderful to see how many profiles who've forked this project are now onto doing some very interesting things!

[@IAmNumber4000]

I knew Git was supposed to be useful before I knew how to use it but wow. That's super useful.

[@chiragsingla.]

I used to feel embarassed when I didn't know git, now I know it and it's very helpful, I also have a workflow and pre-commit setup very helpful

[@entrey_ua]

This channel is trully the best one. Short, useful, essential information. Just great!

[@mpldr_]

I would like to submit a patch: - do small commits + do commits rebase and squash them until you have a nice topical package and ensure that every commit by itself is compilable (This allows for easier bisects later on).

[@alternateName600]

Yeeaaa THANK YOU! Now I understand the process of merging. I always thought I have to stay in the branch to merge to the master. But the right way is stay in the master an merge the features in from the branch to the master.

[@frankcastellanos]

[@lucyebrada2950]

This feels too big of a pill to swallow within a short time. I hope I do understand this after a few more replays within the week 🤞🏻

[@beyondcatastrophe_]

I would recommend "git add -A" instead of "git add .", since this has the added benefit of removing deleted files in the repository This is because '.' is expanded to all files in this (sub)directory by the shell and git does not receive the dot, while '-A' tells git to do this itself

[@sodiboo]

technically . is expanded to the current directory, which git itself expands to all files and subdirectories within it - correct that it does not receive the . but not *quite* accurate what it does receive

[@baibhavchakraborty1560]

[@sanjacobs6261]

This video being VSCode-specific was a mistake. It could've been the one place you need to go to learn git for anything or anyone, but now it's only the best video for very specific software developers.

[@flogginga_dead_horse4022]

It was mostly just running the commands in the VS terminal though...

[@glitched.gaming]

So I am hoping that this tutorial will help me, I'm nearing my last straw. I don't know why Git is so hard for me to grasp. I started programming learning Java (Huge mistake) and that felt like I was trying to swallow an elephant. Just wrapping my head around the OOP concepts drove me to breakdowns crying. Since then I've been able to grasp other languages like Javascript and Python, but for some reason I feel like I'm learning Java All over gain and have broken down more than once. So in advance thank you. and cross your fingers.

AWESOME 12 min video on git! Thanks a lot! One quick Q: what is npm install? why you need it after clone from github? Thank you!

[@maix52]

I think npm install get all dependency required and install them so you have the node_modules folder with all modules installed

Hi Fireship, great tutorial, however can you do a advance topic like rebase and other advance functionality for github? Thank you!

[@spacecowboy3063]

are you still sending the stickers ?? lol, ive never submitted a pull request so im gonna do this to learn it

[@Fireship]

No, but I'm going to do a similar pull request give away soon, so stay tuned

[@SCTproductionsJ5]

Around the 9:00 mark, why can't you just *clone* or *checkout* from someone's repository without having to fork it? Also, is forking how a person would normally compile and run open source software on their own? How easy/hard is that to do? ...cause I feel like every software would be different.

[@mjackstewart]

And you might want to explain the difference between main/master/origin/remote. Those can be vexing when you first start.

[@VoidPaul97]

I would like to add the encryption on Java (since it's the only language I'm learning because of college. I chose to learn programming, but since in my country Java is the best paid programming language I'm learning it there. No complains about it so far, but I'm pretty sure that when I move to another language like Kotlin, Swift, or C# I'll understand why people hate it. In the meantime I'll have to add that encryption through Java)

[@Joshfw27492]

Nice video, I've used source tree before which is more of a UI based source control. I would prefer to use something more terminal based. Will be keeping an eye on this.

[@Luiz-yj9rs]

[@vimtor]

Hey great video! A follow up about git flow would be nice.

[@spooki-2451]

sadly, i don't know what plug-in you used to generate the defaults for your environment. gitlens doesn't seem to have that functionality

Same problem here, it would be cool it it was in the description.

[@avi12]

GitHub should use this video to explain how to use Git and GitHub

[@yukihyo8394]

just a really big pro tip for people learning git and not grasping it at all (it took me a while to understand the power of git) PLEASE use a git client (i 100% recommend gitkraken, since it gives you a really nice and clear graph which really helps understand what the fuck is going on) you are simply not gonna be able to memorize all the commands, and you will 100% forget how your repo structure looks like. it boils down to, command line sucks for learning. and please dont fall in the trap of: "Real programmers only use git on the command line", unless you wanna be less efficient if you got questions about git and gitkraken or anything feel free to leave a command :p
