Overview

Welcome to Git Training, a Hands-On Training repository led by Shreya Malogi! 🌟 comprehensive guide to getting started with Git. This training edition covers not only the basic GitHub workflow but also provides an introduction to version control using Git, essential command-line interface commands, and a Git cheat sheet. 📘🚀

Introduction to Version Control Using Git

What is Version Control?

Version control allows you to manage a 🔄 collection of files, such as 💻 source code for a project or 📁 files for a website, by 🕰️ keeping track of changes over time. It eliminates the ✨ need to archive entire directories to 🤝 maintain different versions manually. Git, a distributed version 🌐 control system, is widely used for efficient collaboration and code management.

Learning Objectives

1. Learn basic command-line interface commands:
   • mkdir, cd, ls, rm, mv 💻
2. Installing Git
3. Learn basic Git commands:
   • log, status, diff, stash, commit, add, rm, .gitignore, branch, checkout 🚀
   • Cloning, pulling, push 🔄
4. Learn basic GitHub actions:
   • Pull requests, forking 🌐

Setting up Git

Download & Install Git from git-scm.com. ⬇️

Configuring Git Settings (Initial Setup) 🤖

After installing Git, introduce yourself to Git with your name and public email address:

git config --global user.email "yourmail@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your User Name Comes Here" 

Checking Configuration 🕵️

To check your credentials:

git config user.name 
git config user.email 

Make sure you run these commands in your working folder/project folder. 📂

Uploading Files to GitHub with Branching" 🚀📂

Here's the complete set of commands to upload files to GitHub using Git, including creating a new branch:

1. Initialize a Git Repository:

   git init

2. Add Files to the Staging Area:

   git add .   # Add all files

   or

   git add <file1> <file2>   # Add specific files

3. Commit Changes:

   git commit -m "Your commit message here"

4. Create a New Branch:

   git branch <branch-name>

   This command creates a new branch but doesn't switch to it.

5. Switch to the New Branch:

   git checkout <branch-name>

   or, using the more recent git switch command:

   git switch <branch-name>

   Alternatively, you can combine branch creation and switching in one command:

   git checkout -b <branch-name>

6. Make Changes, Add, and Commit in the New Branch:

   git add .
   git commit -m "Your commit message here"

7. Add a Remote Repository (GitHub):

   git remote add origin https://github.com/your-username/your-repository.git

8. Push the Changes to GitHub:

   git push -u origin <branch-name>

   The -u option sets the upstream branch for the new branch.

Now, you've initialized a Git repository, added files, committed changes, created a new branch, made changes in the new branch, and pushed the changes to GitHub. Remember to replace your-username, your-repository, and <branch-name> with your actual GitHub username, repository name, and the desired branch name.

Happy coding and branching! 🚀🌿
