The Git Workflow Under a Microscope 6 lectures 24:06 A Typical Git Workflow Most developers who are new to Git fall into a standard pattern of use. There are many ways to use Git that can make your workflow more efficient.
  • When first learning to use Git, the simplified workflow quickly becomes a habit
  • This workflow is effective but leaves room for improvement
Setting the Stage It is important to understand how changes are 'staged' in Gitin order to be added to a commit.
  • The Git 'add' command instructs Git to watch for changes in these files
  • Git tracks changes to all files
  • Learn how to move files in and out of the staging index
The Commit – an Intimate Look The commit is pivotal to Git as a Source Control Management system. Understanding the GitCommit will broaden your understanding of Git in general.
  • Examine the Commit
  • Explore the details of the Commit and see how they relate to the directories in the previous subsection
The Git Directory There is no magic in Git. It uses the file system with a set of hidden directories that store the information.
  • Examine the hidden Git directory
  • Investigate and explore the purpose of the contents of these directories
The Remote When exchanging Git repositories (and updates), you need to connect to other computers.
  • Connect to a service such as GitHub to retrieve a Git repository
  • Set the URL to Pull and Push a Git repository
  • Protocols used and authentication ‘required’
Tracking Remotes When working on a project with others who may be making changes in parallel with you, it is important to keep your copy of the Git repository synchronized.
  • Connect to a remote Git repository and the concept of 'tracking branches' to help synchronized
