30 Minute ‘Git & GitHub Crash Course For Beginners’ Video by Brad Traversy | @traversymedia ‏@github #opensource

In the video below Brad Traversy does a brilliant job describing – and showing – many of the more popular commands for git, from installing the program binary to branching and merging – with a specific emphasis on the recently-rumored then recently-acquired GitHub platform. Which is only to say that GitHub is merely one service implementation of git; there are many, many more options out there.

In this Git tutorial we will talk about what exactly Git is and we will look at and work with all of the basic and most important commands such as add, commit, status, push and more. This tutorial is very beginner friendly.
