During the introduction weeks of all bootcamps, the command line, Git and GitHub are discussed. These tools are very important and will become a routine (believe it or not). But like with everything when learning to code: you have to practise. We will use a learning tool called Git-it to practice the Git commands. This offers an example project to work with the local and remote repositories, so that you can try various things without the risk of messing up your repository 😄.
You can use this material to practise. Make sure you ask for help from more experienced developerd in case you have questions.
We will work with terminal commands such as:
- pwd
- mkdir
- cd foldername
- touch filename
- cd ..
- ls
and Git commands such as:
- git init
- git add .
- git commit -m "some message"
- git push (to a remote GitHub repository)
- git status
- git diff
- git branch branch_name
- and many others
