Git for Beginners: Zero to Hero 🐙 (jdsalaro.com)

Although I prefer the Pro Git book, it's clear that different resources are helpful to different people. For those looking to get an understanding of Git, I've linked to Git for Beginners: Zero to Hero 🐙

The author of "Git for Beginners: Zero to Hero 🐙" posted the following on Reddit:

Hey there folks!

I've rewritten the git tutorial. I've used over the years whenever newbies at work and friends come to me with complex questions but lack the git basics to actually learn.

After discussing my git shortcuts and aliases elsewhere and over DMs it was suggested to me that I share it here.

I hope it helps even a couple of y'all looking to either refresh, jumpstart or get a good grasp of how common git concepts relate to one another !

It goes without saying, that any and all feedback is welcome and appreciated 👍

TL;DR: re-wrote a git tutorial that has helped friends and colleagues better grasp of git https://jdsalaro.com/blog/git-tutorial/

EDIT:

I've been a bit overwhelmed by the support and willingness to provide feedback, so I've enabled hypothes.is on https://jdsalaro.com for /u/NervousQuokka and anyone else wanting chime in. You can now highlight and comment snippets. ⚠️ Please join the feedback@jdsalaro group via this link https://hypothes.is/groups/BrRxenZW/feedback-jdsalaro so any highlights, comments, and notes are visible to me and stay nicely grouped. Using hypothes.is for this is an experiment for me, so let's see how it goes :)

Would that only revert part of a file?

Great tool! Had no idea about how this switch worked. Still figuring it out, but looks like it will do the trick. Hunting down resources for more detailed examples. Thanks!
