Git is one of the most widely used version control tools in the software industry. Whether working on frontend or backend, native or server-side applications, every software developer should be comfortable with Git version control.

In this course, you’ll learn how Git is used in software projects and the basics of version control. Moreover, you’ll learn commits, pushing code, branches, and Git Stash. Finally, you’ll learn to use Git for remote collaboration, including reconciling conflicts and correcting erroneous changes with fetch, pull, reversion, and cherry-picking. At each step, you’ll solve quizzes to test your knowledge.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a working knowledge of Git and its use in version control. You’ll be able to proficiently and efficiently manage your future software projects.

Getting Started with Git Version Control

# What is a commit hash?
For each commit, Git generates a SHA-1 hash as the commit identifier. The hash is based on the current time, the author, the parent commit ID, and some other information.

The commit hash is generated by Git automatically. We get a new hash each time. For example, if we create a commit and then delete it and commit again, we’ll get a different commit hash.

# How can we use it?
When we refer to a specific commit, we can use the initial several characters to refer to it. 

In the terminal given below, run the following command:

```Shell
$ git log
```



Learn how each commit in Git is associated with a hash and how that makes Git a very powerful tool for version control.
