GitHub using step-by-step, no-assumptions


learning
What Will I Learn?

 Learn the key concepts of the Git source control system


 Step through the entire Git workflow
 Compare the different states in Git
 Manage files inside and outside the control of Git and GitHub
 Create and manage repositories on GitHub
 Create branches and resolve conflicts with confidence
 Save work in progress with Stashes
 Mark special events with Tags and Releases
 Even a bit of time travel within Git repositories and on GitHub
 Perform many of the same local Git operations directly on GitHub
 Join other GitHub projects by Forking and contribute back using Pull Requests
 Review and Accept Pull Requests from Others
 Share code with Gists
 Manage project defects or enhancement requests with GitHub Issues
 Group related repositories together with GitHub Organizations

Requirements

 Basic computer skills


 Ability to install software on your computer
 Admin rights may be required for software installation

Description
This course will comprehensively cover the GitHub hosting service as a companion to the Git
source control tool, which means no prior knowledge or experience is required. Students will
emerge at the end with a very solid understanding and hands-on experience with
Git and GitHub.

Course Organization
The course is divided into four major components:

 Introduction and Setup


 Learning Git Source Control
 All About GitHub
 Bonuses

Each one of the above components spans multiple sections in this course.

New! Closed captions throughout the course!


Introduction
The Introduction provides a welcome to the course including some useful tips for getting the
most out of taking the course and how the course is designed. That is followed by the Core
Concepts which go over some critical theory before diving straight into Git.

After the introduction and core concepts, the first thing we do is a Quick Installation for
both Windows and Mac. The Bonus section has a more comprehensive, step-by-step process
for those that prefer it.

Learning Git Source Control


In The Basics, we walk through all the foundational commands needed to start a new project
managed by Git (or enable Git for an existing project) all the way through making commits,
including common file operations like moving and deleting files. We also cover how to
exclude the wrong files from accidentally being committed and how to review your
repository’s history.

With a strong foundation in place, we explore some more Advanced Git topics like
comparing differences, branching and merge resolution, tagging special events, saving work
in progress, and even a bit of time travel.

All About GitHub


The main part of this course is all about GitHub. We will explore GitHub indepth from a
source control hosting repository perspective.

In Welcome to GitHub we start off exploring some of the basic features of GitHub by
creating a fresh repository and associate our local repository with it. Then, we prepare for the
remainder of the course by setting up SSH Authentication, which we will use from this point
forward. After that, we continue looking at the GitHub Repository, including many of the
same operations we performed locally, but done directly within GitHub. Then in GitHub
Repository Branches we dive into how Branches on GitHub and our local system work with
each other.

After we have comprehensively covered how GitHub repositories work, we focus on


how GitHub Tags and Releases work and their relationship with local tags in Git. We can
then use tags/releases while Comparing Differences on GitHub.

We start tying things together in Social Coding where we join other projects on GitHub
by forking and then submitting our contributions back using pull requests.

Once part of a team, you might use GitHub Issues to track defects or enhancement requests.

Sometimes you just need to share small parts of a file or a set of files, but don’t want to
bother with a full Git repository. That where GitHub Gists help out — share just a snip of
code or entire files.

Finally, group related GitHub repositories with GitHub Organizations and manage
permissions and access using teams.
Bonuses
The bonuses sections and lectures provide additional information, more comprehensive
instructions, or non-critical lectures.

Course Features
All tools have installation and configuration sections to ensure no one is left behind.
Presentations provide audio/video training of conceptual ideas. Since few like slide-ware
presentations, slide-presentations are kept to a minimum.

Screencasts provide a video of the instructor’s computer system with any actions, commands,
or screens displayed and narrated. There is nearly 5 hours of screencast based video training
in order to step through each command or action in sufficient detail.

All videos are available in high quality 1080p / Full HD resolution for sharp and clear
viewing on modern desktops and tablets.

Several attachments and document lectures throughout the course provide supplemental
information, illustrations, or other reference material.

Moving Forward
This course will expand periodically to include more topics, supporting materials and bonus
content! Some content may be in direct response to student feedback or discussions — so get
engaged with the course discussions feature!

Who is the target audience?

 Anyone interested in using source control and specifically Git and GitHub
 Software engineers, developers, programmers new to Git or GitHub
 IT Managers or technical leads considering Git or GitHub for version control on their
team
 Freelancers or other creative professionals
