This is an Introduction to using git version control and github, I had with some learners at the the last ALC Meetup.

We covered:

1. What is Git.

2. How to Install Git on our lcal mechine.

3. Some basic git CL commands such as-

   • $ git config --global user.name "name"
   • $ git config --global user.email "email address" (To configure gitbash)
   • $ git clone "URL" (To clone a remote repository from github)
   • $ git add (To Snapshots the file in preparation for versioning)
   • $ git status (To Lists all new or modified files to be committed)
   • $ git commit -m "[descriptive message]" (To Records file snapshots permanently in version history)
   • $ git push (Uploads all local branch commits to GitHub)
   • $ git pull (Downloads bookmark history and incorporates changes)
