What will you learn from this book?
Many people who use Git rely on "recipes"--copying and pasting commands
they find on the internet without really understanding how Git actually
works. But what do you do if you find yourself in a tight spot? You
can't simply wing it. With this unique hands-on guide, you'll learn the
ways of Git and have fun while doing it. Raju Gandhi peels back the
layers to reveal the simple yet powerful engine that powers Git, so
you'll understand not just the how but the why. You'll master branches,
merges, commit messages, search, utilities, and more; learn best
practices for collaborative work; and unlock the full potential of Git.
What's so special about this book?
If you've read a Head First book, you know what to expect--a visually
rich format designed for the way your brain works. If you haven't,
you're in for a treat. With this book, you'll learn Git through a
multisensory experience that engages your mind rather than a text-heavy
approach that puts you to sleep.
