Hello habr! I continue to share useful collections. I've already published posts with Github repos ( Part 1 and Part 2 ), as well as a collection of 10 developer books . I decided not to stop :) Who cares - welcome to cat.
It's no secret that both Git and GitHub are standard source management and storage systems for developers. There was a time when systems like CVS, SVN, VSS, Mercury, and TFS controlled different ways of version control, but slowly but surely, it all came together in Git.
Now about 70-80% of programmers actively use Git in their work. However, when it comes to using source control tools like SVN or CVS, most programmers use IDEs like IntelliJIDEA or Eclipse, although they are hardly familiar with the command line.
Tools like Git bash and a number of useful Git commands have pushed programmers to use Git both on the command line and in the IDE. That's why the developer is simply vital to know the key Git commands, such as
git status
, git add
, git commit
, git push
and their standard options.
I couldn't pass by and tell you about useful Git courses. Here I have collected 7 paid and free courses on learning Git for both beginners and experienced programmers. They will help you understand the basic principles and tricks of working with Git. I hope it will come to you.
1. Git Complete: A Step-by-Step Guide
Created by Jason Taylor, this course is a step-by-step guide through the entire Git workflow that teaches you comparing different states of files in Git, managing files, creating and modifying repositories on GitHub, and more. The course has a good rating - 4.4 points.
2. Masterclass Git and GitHub: from beginner to expert
I could not help but tell you about one of the most complete Bibhash Roy courses on Git and Github. This course will introduce you to almost all the necessary knowledge that you will ever need to work in Git. This course also has a good rating - 4.3 points. An excellent course for learning Git from the ground up to advanced.
3. Become a Git and GitHub Expert in 4 Hours (Free Course)
A free, 4.3-rated course to get you up to speed on Git and Github quickly and painlessly. If you've just joined a new company or started a project that will use Git, this course is for you.
Despite the fact that the course is only 4.5 hours long, it is quite complete and covers all the most important Git topics. It covers both the theory and the workflow of Git, repositories and other equally important things.
4. GitHub Ultimate: The Ultimate Git and GitHub Course
Another excellent and complete Git course from Udemy. It includes an interpretation of the basic concepts and consideration of the main tasks of the Git, many commands such as
git add
, git status
, git log
, git commit
, git pull
, git push
and others. Good course with a rating of 4.4 points.
5. GitHub Basics
This is about the Pluralsight course by Jill Clearen, created for learning Git and Github. Here you will learn about creating repositories, committing files, making changes to a remote repository, troubleshooting commits, and many other Git features.
Unfortunately, you have to spend money to study the course. Access requires a Pluralsight membership, which costs $ 29 per month or $ 299 per year. However, you can take advantage of the 10-day free trial , which gives you 200 minutes of access to all of their classes.
6. The Complete Guide to Git: Mastering Git and GitHub
An advanced course on learning Git for programming and development. You will learn a lot about commits, branches, merges, squashing and so on. Basically, everything you need to know as a developer. The course contains many practical exercises.
The practical section contains exercises for every taste and color:
- Initializing a new Git repository
- Making changes, adding to preparation and committing
- Creating, checking and merging branches, etc.
I would say this is the perfect course for a software developer looking to become one of the best in this topic.
7. Git Essentials: Learning Git with Bitbucket and Sourcetree
The last course I want to recommend to you is about learning Git commands and concepts on Udemy. It will help you quickly get up to speed on how to use Git in day-to-day software development, how to use Git with Sourcetree and Bitbucket, basic Git commands and concepts for working on Github projects, and more.
Not as complete as the previous courses, but I recommend it for everyone who needs to work at Bitbucket and Sourcetree to study.
I hope this collection will be useful not only for those who start learning Git and Github from scratch, but also for those who want to brush up on their knowledge or study Git in more detail, and maybe help some of you on your way to becoming a good specialist.
