New Video Class: Git and Version Control, Part 2
Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency. Git can really help your development, but it can be intimidating to set up and use.
Part 1 of this class was published last month.
In Part 2, Brian shows you how to move code between your work environment and the shared Git environment. You’ll see how to use Github, Bitbucket and SSH keys. You’ll learn to clone, push, move, merge, undo changes and much more.
