What is Git? GitHub Remote Server Developer 1 Developer 3 Developer 2 Git is used to track changes in the source code Git is a distributed version control tool used for source code management Allows multiple developers to work together Supports non-linear development because of thousands of parallel branches Has the ability to handle large projects efficiently
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit vs GitHub
Git vs GitHub 2 3 4 It is installed on the local system It is used to manage different versions of the source code It provides a command line to interact with the files 1 2 3 4 GitHub is a service It is hosted on the web It is used to have a copy of the local repository code It provides a graphical interface to store the files 1 Git is a software tool
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit Architecture
Git Architecture Working Directory Local Working Directory is the folder where you are currently working
Git Architecture Working Directory Staging Area git add Local You add your files to the staging area before making a commit
Git Architecture Working Directory Local RepositoryStaging Area git add git commit Local After making all the changes, you commit those files to the local repository
Git Architecture Working Directory Local RepositoryStaging Area Remote Repository git add git commit git push Local Remote You can push the committed files to the remote repository
Git Architecture Working Directory Local RepositoryStaging Area Remote Repository git add git commit git push git pull Local Remote git pull fetches all the changes from a remote repository to a local repository

Forked Test_Repository Fork and Clone Git Rebase Pull from a remote Now that we have understood Git and it’s architecture, let’s learn some git concepts Git Concepts Adding Collaborators Branch in Git
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemFork and Clone
Fork and Clone Hey, I want to propose some changes to your project Sure. Go ahead and Fork it
Fork and Clone Git allows you to fork an open source repository. When you fork a repository, you create a copy of it on your GitHub account. Someone else’s repository Your own repository Forked Test_Repository Test_Repository Fork
Fork and Clone After you fork a repository, you can clone it and have a copy of it on your local system. Someone else’s repository Your own repository Forked Test_Repository Test_Repository Fork Local Repository Clone to you local computer from GitHub
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemCollaborators
Collaborators Ok, let me add you as a Collaborator on GitHub and give you the permission Hey, there are some errors in your code repository, I need to fix it
Collaborators GitHub allows you to work with users from all over the world at any given time Collaborators are GitHub users who are given permission to edit a repository owned by someone else Anonymous UserRepository’s Owner Your repository  Access all the files  View the files  Make changes to the files  Commit the files
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemBranch in Git
Branch in Git Suppose you are working on an application and you want to add a new feature to the app You can create a new branch and build the new feature on that branch Master branch New branch New Feature Application  By default, you always work on the master branch  The circles on the branch represent various commits made on the branch
Branch in Git  The diagram shows there are 2 new branches  You can develop the features you want separately Branch in Git is used to keep your changes until they are ready Master Branch New Branch New Branch Application
Branch in Git  The diagram shows there are 2 new branches  You can develop the features you want separately Branch in Git is used to keep your changes until they are ready  After you develop them completely, you can merge the newly created branches to the master branch New Branch New Branch Master Branch Application
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit Merge
Git Merge a b c d e f g Master Feature Master The base commit of feature branch is b There can be multiple divergent branches
Git Merge a b c d e f g Master Feature Master The base commit of feature branch is b There can be multiple commits for each new branch you create
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit Rebase
Git Rebase a b c d e f Master Feature f_e_ Feature Feature d_ Feature The base commit of feature branch is changed from b to c (tip of master) There is no extra commit history
Git Rebase a b c d e f Master Feature f_e_ Feature Feature d_ Feature The base commit of feature branch is changed from b to c (tip of master) Resulting history is linear with no divergent branches
Git Rebase Git Rebase is the process of combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit  The primary reason for rebasing is to maintain a linear project history Master Feature
Git Rebase Git Rebase is the process of combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit  The primary reason for rebasing is to maintain a linear project history  When you rebase, you “unplug” a branch and “replug” it on the tip of another branch (usually master) Master FeatureFeature
Git Rebase Git Rebase is the process of combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit  The primary reason for rebasing is to maintain a linear project history  When you rebase, you “unplug” a branch and “replug” it on the tip of another branch (usually master)  The goal of rebasing is to take all the commits from a feature branch and put it on the master branch Master FeatureFeature
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemPull from Remote
Pull from a Remote Suppose these 2 developers are working together on an application
Pull from a Remote They makes changes to their codes and submit it to the remote repository Remote Repository
Pull from a Remote Both of them want to stay updated with the recent changes to the repository Remote Repository
Pull from a Remote They can pull the changes from the remote repository on to their local system Remote Repository Pull from Remote Repository Pull from Remote Repository
Pull from a Remote Your forked Repository Remote Repository Local Repository Pull Your fork Repository  Use the following command to check if there has been any change $ git pull <RemoteName> <BranchName>  If there is no change, it will notify “Already up- to-date”. If there is an change, it will merge those changes to your local repository You can pull in any changes that have been made from your forked remote repository to the local repository
What’s in it for you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemCommands in Git
Popular Git Commands git init Initialize a local Git Repository git add / git add . Add one or more files to staging area git commit –m “commit message” Commit changes to head but not to the remote repository git status Check the status of your current repository and list the files you have changed git log Provides a list of all the commits made on your branch
Popular Git Commands git diff View the changes you have made to the file git push origin <branch name> Push the branch to the remote repository so that others can use it Git config –global user.name “Roger” Tell Git who you are by configuring the author name Git config –global user.email roger.1@gmail.com Tell Git who you are by configuring the author email id git clone Creates a Git repository copy from a remote source
Popular Git Commands git remote add origin <server> Connect your local repository to the remote server and add the server to be able to push to it git branch <branch name> Create a new branch git checkout <branch name> Switch from one branch to another git merge <branch name> Merge a branch into the active branch git rebase Reapply commits on top of another base tip

    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemFork and Clone
  • 26.
    Fork and Clone Hey,I want to propose some changes to your project Sure. Go ahead and Fork it
  • 27.
    Fork and Clone Gitallows you to fork an open source repository. When you fork a repository, you create a copy of it on your GitHub account. Someone else’s repository Your own repository Forked Test_Repository Test_Repository Fork
  • 28.
    Fork and Clone Afteryou fork a repository, you can clone it and have a copy of it on your local system. Someone else’s repository Your own repository Forked Test_Repository Test_Repository Fork Local Repository Clone to you local computer from GitHub

    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemCollaborators
  • 30.
    Collaborators Ok, let meadd you as a Collaborator on GitHub and give you the permission Hey, there are some errors in your code repository, I need to fix it
  • 31.
    Collaborators GitHub allows youto work with users from all over the world at any given time Collaborators are GitHub users who are given permission to edit a repository owned by someone else Anonymous UserRepository’s Owner Your repository  Access all the files  View the files  Make changes to the files  Commit the files
  • 32.
    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemBranch in Git
  • 33.
    Branch in Git Supposeyou are working on an application and you want to add a new feature to the app You can create a new branch and build the new feature on that branch Master branch New branch New Feature Application  By default, you always work on the master branch  The circles on the branch represent various commits made on the branch
  • 34.
    Branch in Git The diagram shows there are 2 new branches  You can develop the features you want separately Branch in Git is used to keep your changes until they are ready Master Branch New Branch New Branch Application
  • 35.

  • 36.
    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit Merge
  • 37.
    Git Merge a bc d e f g Master Feature Master The base commit of feature branch is b There can be multiple divergent branches
  • 38.
    Git Merge a bc d e f g Master Feature Master The base commit of feature branch is b There can be multiple commits for each new branch you create
  • 39.
    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemGit Rebase
  • 40.
    Git Rebase a bc d e f Master Feature f_e_ Feature Feature d_ Feature The base commit of feature branch is changed from b to c (tip of master) There is no extra commit history
  • 41.
    Git Rebase a bc d e f Master Feature f_e_ Feature Feature d_ Feature The base commit of feature branch is changed from b to c (tip of master) Resulting history is linear with no divergent branches
  • 42.
    Git Rebase Git Rebaseis the process of combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit  The primary reason for rebasing is to maintain a linear project history Master Feature
  • 43.
    Git Rebase Git Rebaseis the process of combining a sequence of commits to a new base commit  The primary reason for rebasing is to maintain a linear project history  When you rebase, you “unplug” a branch and “replug” it on the tip of another branch (usually master) Master FeatureFeature

    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemPull from Remote
  • 46.
    Pull from aRemote Suppose these 2 developers are working together on an application
  • 47.
    Pull from aRemote They makes changes to their codes and submit it to the remote repository Remote Repository
  • 48.
    Pull from aRemote Both of them want to stay updated with the recent changes to the repository Remote Repository
  • 49.
    Pull from aRemote They can pull the changes from the remote repository on to their local system Remote Repository Pull from Remote Repository Pull from Remote Repository
  • 50.
    Pull from aRemote Your forked Repository Remote Repository Local Repository Pull Your fork Repository  Use the following command to check if there has been any change $ git pull <RemoteName> <BranchName>  If there is no change, it will notify “Already up- to-date”. If there is an change, it will merge those changes to your local repository You can pull in any changes that have been made from your forked remote repository to the local repository
  • 51.
    What’s in itfor you? What’s in it for you?Version Control SystemCommands in Git
  • 52.
    Popular Git Commands gitinit Initialize a local Git Repository git add / git add . Add one or more files to staging area git commit –m “commit message” Commit changes to head but not to the remote repository git status Check the status of your current repository and list the files you have changed git log Provides a list of all the commits made on your branch
