If you’ve ever wondered why someone should use Git or how to use it for version control, this is a great course to get started. Join Azure MVP and GitHub Star Barbara Forbes as she guides you through the installation process, the Git workflow, setting up and pushing code into a repo, and committing changes, all with a focus on version control and how Git can help you achieve it. Find out why people use Git. Learn how Git works, locally or through a provider, and how you can get it installed, configured, and running the way you need it to work. Follow the full process of pushing your code with Git, then explore ways to make changes to files. Discover important concepts in Git, like how to ignore files you don’t want to include, how branching and merging can help you with development, what should be in a commit, and how to troubleshoot common errors.
This course is integrated with GitHub Codespaces, an instant cloud developer environment that offers all the functionality of your favorite IDE without the need for any local machine setup. With GitHub Codespaces, you can get hands-on practice from any machine, at any time—all while using a tool that you’ll likely encounter in the workplace.

+ ## Instructions -This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add `/tree/BRANCH_NAME` to the URL to go to the branch you want to access. +To use this repository, you can create a _fork_. You do so from the GitHub website. The process will be explained in the course. +After you have created a fork, you can use the repository from your own account. + +## GitHub Codespaces +It is recommended to use GitHub Codespaces to follow along with this course. Explanations on how to use them are provided in the course. + +You can find more information on GitHub Codespaces possibilities and limitations [here](https://docs.github.com/en/codespaces/about-codespaces/what-are-codespaces). -## Branches -The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is `CHAPTER#_MOVIE#`. As an example, the branch named `02_03` corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter. -Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters `b` for "beginning" and `e` for "end". The `b` branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The `e` branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The `main` branch holds the final state of the code when in the course. +_Note: You can get up to 60 hours of GitHub Codespaces usage per month for free.
