Very helpfull course to get started, although i was missing some commands like fetch and clone.Also talking about a developer branch would have been helpful and how to set up local repositories.

This course is fantastic and has definitely made me better and more confident in using Git.

Great course, you learn a lot of commands and in many examples of everyday situations but there are other git commands and utilities that are cited in many places but not cited in the course.But overall very good course!

There are two points I want to make about my 5 star rating:1) For those of you (including myself) who have spent endless amount of time with either too advanced tutorials ( leaving you even more confused) or too basic tutorials ( leaving you with many "gaps") this course will actually solidify and connect all those missing dots and git will start making sense at how "simple" it can be.2) But for those who start out fresh on their git learning "journey", this course will be confusing at times as on a few times the author uses commands / terminology that even though basic at times, nevertheless it assumes the reader knows. For those of you who fall into this category DON'T DESPAIR. As even Reece acknowledges in the videos, learning git can be quite confusing and this is normal even for accomplished engineers such as Reece.I gave this course a 5 star rating because finally, after so many hours and self-reading, viewing other courses on git, I finally "get it" with Reece's course. Reece's simple approach on certain git commands that other authors convolute even more unnecessary (not on purpose) had made me reach several times saying to myself: "Ahaaa .. now I get it " .. and so this course was indeed very valuable. Thank you Reece.

Very good practical explanation of git for beginners. Would have loved to see a section on git rebase, and on dealing with conflicts arising from different people modifying the same file in different branches.The course pace is good, it gets to the point and does not waste time.

Mostly useful (not sure about the stashing changes section, though).

Reece is one of the best instructors on Udemy. He makes everything he teaches very easy to understand.
