Posting Etiquette

  1. Ask the main part of your question in the title. This should be concise but informative.

  2. Provide everything up front. Don't make people fish for more details in the comments. Provide background information and examples.

  3. Be present for follow up questions. Don't ask for help and run away. Stick around to answer questions and provide more details.

  4. Ask about the problem you're trying to solve. Don't focus too much on debugging your exact solution, as you may be going down the wrong path. Include as much information as you can about what you ultimately are trying to achieve. See more on this here: https://xyproblem.info/

Although I prefer the Pro Git book, it's clear that different resources are helpful to different people. For those looking to get an understanding of Git, I've linked to Git for Beginners: Zero to Hero ๐Ÿ™

The author of "Git for Beginners: Zero to Hero ๐Ÿ™" posted the following on Reddit:

Hey there folks!

I've rewritten the git tutorial. I've used over the years whenever newbies at work and friends come to me with complex questions but lack the git basics to actually learn.

After discussing my git shortcuts and aliases elsewhere and over DMs it was suggested to me that I share it here.

I hope it helps even a couple of y'all looking to either refresh, jumpstart or get a good grasp of how common git concepts relate to one another !

It goes without saying, that any and all feedback is welcome and appreciated ๐Ÿ‘

TL;DR: re-wrote a git tutorial that has helped friends and colleagues better grasp of git https://jdsalaro.com/blog/git-tutorial/

EDIT:

I've been a bit overwhelmed by the support and willingness to provide feedback, so I've enabled hypothes.is on https://jdsalaro.com for /u/NervousQuokka and anyone else wanting chime in. You can now highlight and comment snippets. โš ๏ธ Please join the feedback@jdsalaro group via this link https://hypothes.is/groups/BrRxenZW/feedback-jdsalaro so any highlights, comments, and notes are visible to me and stay nicely grouped. Using hypothes.is for this is an experiment for me, so let's see how it goes :)

from the plumbing point of view it has a single responsibility, but from the user's point of view it has many

I wholeheartedly agree, I'll add this edit to my backlog !

I see that your blog focuses on Git. I'm not sure if you are aware, or not, but there is a Git community at https://programming.dev/c/git. Feel free to share links to your blogs.

It's not really that my blog focuses on git, rather than that's what I chose to get active again with :) I've got many posts drafted but decided to start with topics I'm well acquainted with and newbies feel are challenging. I'll post there !! Thanks ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ
