how to learn git?how to learn git?Posted Jan 23, 2009 20:36 UTC (Fri) by dlang (✭ supporter ✭, #313)In reply to: how to learn git? by astrophoenix Parent article: GNOME considers DVCS choices
I think the key is to avoid the temptation to try and sit down and learn all of git at once (especially all the different ways that git can be used)
there are a few core concepts that are really good to understand, but after that you should use it (looking things up or asking as you try to do new things)
the amount of git that you need to know to use it like CVS/svn/perforce etc is very small.
there are several 'how to use git for XXX users' documents out there, and many 'cheat sheets' that give approximatly equivalent commands for the different DVCS systems.
but trying to learn all of git before you start using it is like trying to learn all of perl from the man pages before you write 'hello world'
