To make tutorials for beginners is very hard: many things 'trivial' for the teacher are not known by the learner at all. The teacher is usually unaware of this. These are usually concepts. At 46:56 is the very first time you actually mention what this whole authentication is all about: you want the Git client to access GitLab in the backround, and use this connection to upload commits !!!! I suppose you can use 'git config' in the Git client terminal window to set up access to GitLab. This has never been said out loud up until this point. However, I do appreciate the hard work put into the video, it is very useful! Thank you!

By the way, for switching to a branch, you should use the "new" switch command, instead of "checkout"

[@LambdaTest]

Yes, correct The git switch command makes it clearer that the purpose is to switch branches, while git restore is meant for restoring working tree files. This is part of an effort to make Git commands more user-friendly and to reduce the overloading of the checkout command.

[@ashvinla]

Hi Moss, excellent video. Learning a lot from this. I had one question 1. When we closed the issues, don't we have a capability to link the commit to the issue (or when we raise a commit, tag it to an issue)? Without that, closing the issue/marking it as done would lead to lack of traceability

[@LambdaTest]

Hi Ashvin, Glad to hear that. For your question, let us get back to you

[@ashvinla]

@@LambdaTest Thanks for the response. I did some experiments with gitlab. What I found was that if you put the commit ID in the comments, then gitlab automatically creates a hyperlink to the commit. I think with this, we can easily track the commit that was responsible for the issue to be closed.

how to sync merge request with target branch ? i have tried doing "git pull origin master" it was successful but when I pushed it shows commit from others as well in my merge request.

[@LambdaTest]

Hey there, To sync your merge request with the target branch without including commits from others: Fetch the latest changes: git fetch origin Rebase your feature branch onto the target branch: git rebase origin/target_branch Force push your updated feature branch: git push origin your_branch_name --force-with-lease This will align your branch with the target branch without mixing in other's commits. Ensure you coordinate with your team before force pushing, as it can overwrite changes.

[@ultramelon3960]

how do you get your commands to show up beside your user line? my command line has the $ and user input below, making each action take 2 lines before the output instead of 1, which I find a bit gross to look at. Where did you go to change this?

[@LambdaTest]

Hey there, Here's a concise guide to modifying your command prompt so that user commands appear on the same line as the prompt (e.g., user@host:~$ command), instead of having the $ and command on separate lines: Open Your Shell Configuration File: For Bash, this is typically .bashrc or .bash_profile in your home directory. For Zsh, it's .zshrc. Use a text editor to open it, like nano ~/.bashrc or nano ~/.zshrc. Modify the PS1 Variable: The prompt is defined by the PS1 environment variable. You'll see a line in the configuration file that starts with PS1=. Customize PS1: You can customize this variable to change how your prompt looks. To have your command appear on the same line as your prompt, make sure your PS1 variable does not include at the end. adds a new line. Example for a simple prompt: PS1='\u@\h:\w\$ ' - \u represents the username. - \h represents the hostname. - \w represents the current working directory. - $ is the symbol for your prompt, followed by a space to separate the command.

[@ewout206]

"Git is more complex, and it requires your team to know it inside and out before using it safely and effectively. With Git, one sloppy developer can cause major damage for the whole team. Its documentation is also harder to understand."

[@LambdaTest]

Thanks for sharing your perspective! Indeed, Git does come with a steeper learning curve compared to some other version control systems. It offers a lot of flexibility, which can sometimes lead to complexity. However, once mastered, it provides powerful tools for collaborative development. To mitigate potential issues, teams can establish guidelines, use Pull/Merge Request reviews, and integrate continuous integration tools. Also, there's a vast community and numerous resources available to assist with Git education.

[@lauranato]

Why there is no a ‘I love’ ❤ button? I dont only like it … thank you so much. It is quite complex for me and this video helped me.

[@LambdaTest]

Thank you! 😃

[@artemkeller2571]

Thanks for the video! I have a question: i've added and modified a simple txt file and pushed to gitlab. Then created a merge request and went to "Changes" section to compare what i've changed in the added file. But i don't see content of the file, instead i see the message: "File suppressed by a .gitattributes entry or the file's encoding is unsupported.". I've tried adding ".gitattributes" file and populate it with "*text=auto", but that seems not to work. Do you have a solution for that?

[@LambdaTest]

Hey Artem, To resolve the issue of GitLab displaying the message "File suppressed by a .gitattributes entry or the file's encoding is unsupported" when comparing changes: - Verify the .gitattributes file in the root directory of your repository and ensure it contains the correct configuration, such as * text=auto for handling text files automatically. - Check the encoding of the text file you added and modified, ensuring it is UTF-8 encoded. Convert the file to UTF-8 if necessary. - Clear the GitLab cache by navigating to Settings > Repository > Remove artifacts. - Confirm that you are using an up-to-date version of GitLab. If the issues persists, please reach us out at [e-mail]

Hi Moss, I am not a software person but I work with software people that speak coding. I am trying to learn software speak. I don't know how to do basic things like verifying which version of Git I have on my computer. Is that a command screen you are using to do that? I thought this is for beginners but maybe you have to already know how to do some things first.

[@LambdaTest]

Hey there, No problem at all! You'd check your Git version via the 'command-line interface' or terminal. Just open it and type git --version and press enter. If Git is installed, you'll see the version number. If not, you'll see an error. The initial learning curve in coding can feel steep but don't hesitate to ask questions. We all start somewhere!

[@shahedulislam94]

What is the benefit of the Gitlab workflow vs the Github workflow? I struggle to see the practical benefits of a separate staging branch. If the code is the same the behaviour will be identical.

[@LambdaTest]

Hi Shahe, Let us get back to you

[@LambdaTest]

Hey there, the biggest difference between GitLab Flow and GitHub Flow are the branches of the environment in GitLab Flow (for example, pre-production and production) GitHub flow assumes that if you are on the master you can go to production. GitLab flow allows the code to pass through internal environments before it reaches production. Stagging branch contains the code that is being tested before going to production ie. we use this branch to deploy to a production-like environment that worked as a final test until production, this environment is also called staging
