Learn how to use Git, the industry standard for version control
Git was released in 2005, and in the past 20 years, it's become a must-know tool for every single software developer out there. Originally created by Linux creator Linus Torvalds, it made it possible for distributed, non-linear workflows to all come harmoniously together into a single codebase, and it skyrocketed the productivity of small and big teams. Git is also a requirement for jobs at any seniority level, and every junior developer is expected to know how to use it effectively. In this course, Scott Sauber will assume no knowledge of Git and version control, and he will teach you not only everything you need to know to master Git but also show you how to deal with problems when Git goes wrong.
