This comprehensive course is your ultimate guide to learning Git and version control. You’ll start with the basics of Git version control, such as setting up your Git config and running basic terminal commands like the echo command. Then, you’ll explore GitHub as a development platform and understand Git snapshots.

You’ll advance your skills by creating and managing Git commits, undoing changes with Git undo commit, and reviewing your project’s history using Git logs. You’ll also tackle branching—learn how to rename or delete branches and confidently resolve Git merge conflicts. Additionally, you’ll master repository management with Git commands and organize changes using Git checkout, Git stash, and more.

After completing this course, you’ll be ready to use Git commands in your projects—a career-boosting skill for every software developer.

Learn Git

In the previous lesson, we looked at how merge conflicts can occur and worked with an example to create a merge conflict. We made changes to the same file, `file1.txt`, in two different branches and tried to merge them. Git can't decide on its own which change should remain so a developer would have to resolve the conflict themselves.

In the terminal below, we have a merge conflict that has taken place when we try to merge a branch called `feature_branch` with `master`.

This lesson will teach you ways in which you can resolve merge conflicts.
