Git Tutorial

Teach Yourself git:

For those new to git, there is a wealth of information on the web.  

Here are a few of the ACME SE team's favorite sites to start with:

• Official Git Documentation - the manual and cheat sheets   <- Best place to start!
• Collection of Tutorials- from the official site.
• Git: the simple guide - includes pdf cheat sheet.
• Interactive tutorial on branching

• Git for computer scientists - graphical intro to the Git data model
• Think Like a Git
• Visual Git Guide
• Git: Revision Control Perfected
  
  

Here are a few sites that provide information on how to properly format commit messages. This step is very important because several git commands rely on this formatting.

• A note about commit messages
• Git commit messages (OpenStack)
