It doesn't seem to make distinctions between classic git and modern git. Mixes up things git checkout and git restore without explaining the differences. Also explain silly things like creating a directory with "mkdir" but then presents 7 different git commands in succession without examples. It tries to be very basic and advanced at the same time, not great.

Really enjoyed the course, as the instructor took his time explaining the concepts and paced himself through the exercises, allowing the audience to go step by step and quickly grasp the material.

I have to say, it was a really great opportunity to learn. The course had a lot of information, was organized well, and had a good balance of theory and hands-on activities.

By Panagiotis on 9/13/2022

Not very happy about the course, I thought it just scratches the surface. I have to say that I already use Git in my work and I have also viewed other courses. I didn't find the course very engaging and for starters it may not be so clear
