Its incredibly fast branching ability transformed a piece of code from a niche tool for Linux Kernel developers into a mainstream distributed versioning system. Like most powerful tools, Git can be hard to approach since it has a lot of commands, subcommands, and options that easily confuse newcomers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 2nd edition of this very successful book will help you overcome this fear and become adept in all the basic tasks in Git. Building upon the success of the first book, we start with a brief step-by-step installation guide; after this, you'll delve into the essentials of Git. For those of you who have bought the first edition, this time we go into internals in far greater depth, talking less about theory and using much more practical examples.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book serves as a primer for topics to follow, such as branching and merging, creating and managing a GitHub personal repository, and fork and pull requests. You'll then learn the art of cherry-picking, taking only the commits you want, followed by Git blame. Finally, we'll see how to interoperate with a Subversion server, covering the concepts and commands needed to convert an SVN repository into a Git repository.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo conclude, this is a collection of resources, links, and appendices to satisfy even the most curious.\u003c\/p\u003eStyle and approach\u003cp\u003eThis short guide will help you understand the concepts and fundamentals of GIT is a step-by-step manner.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47135789940976,"sku":"9781787283176","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781787283176_p0.jpg?v=1763739159","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781787283176","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
