Git is one of the most widely used version control tools, and is something that every developer should become comfortable with. In this course, you will get hands-on experience working with Git so that when it comes time to use it, you’ll be ready.

You’ll start by learning some of the more fundamental concepts such as initializing a Git repository, adding files to a repository, and how to commit changes. You’ll also learn how to clone a repository, and how to create branching.

You’ll then make your way to some more advanced concepts like Git stash, cherry-picking, working with multiple repositories, pushing code, and a lot more.

To really test your understanding, you will complete four assessments that start with the core basics and go all the way up to advanced Git.

By the end of this course, you will have a proficient and working knowledge of Git which will serve you well throughout your career.

# Port changes from one branch to another

Since every commit in Git is a change set with a reference ID, you can easily port changes from one branch to another.

## Setup

To demonstrate this, create a simple repository with two changes:

```Shell
1	mkdir lgthw_cherry_pick
2	cd lgthw_cherry_pick
3	git init
4	echo change1 > file1
5	git add file1
6	git commit -am change1
7	echo change2 >> file1
8	git commit -am change2
9	git log --all --oneline --decorate --graph
```

Learn how you can apply the concept of "cherry-picking" with the help of an example.
