It has been a really easy and fast course, providing us all the basic knowledges to work with git in local and with a team. He teaches exactly all the things written in the course description, in a clear and simple way.

Good explanations. I lacked some more visual presentation of how process goes with git. Overall it's worth watching and learning due to complexity and shortness

By Andrei Berezhnoi on 2/17/2022

good course for beginners. however, sometimes it lacks a more thorough explanation on the provided commands

I really enjoyed the course, and it helped me gain insight of git which seemed like a huge hurdle before. Thank you for this course Mr. Dmytro Khmelenko

This course delivers everything it promises. I liked the step by step hands on experience. I wish there was a video on how to create and work with multiple folders.

By Arkodeep Koley on 5/14/2021

Just teaches some features of git. Not suggested for real world use. You can learn all these while using GIT for practical purpose by yourself

By Shubham jha on 5/9/2021

This course is excellent! The presenter is very easy to understand and explains the basic git commands and workflow fully and concisely. I would recommend this course to anyone new to git, or anyone who'd been working with a different source control system before moving to a project that uses git.

By Denys Adamov on 1/27/2021

In the last lectures, it was difficult to understand what was happening in practice video without the diagrams like those from the theoretical ones and sometimes I lacked explanations of used Linux commands.

By Anton Pavlushko on 1/24/2021

A great course to refresh existing knowledge and absolutely essential for beginners! From a pedagogical point of view, one of the best courses I've seen on Udemy!

By Angelina Kulakova on 12/6/2020

This is a well-structured course aimed to give practical Git skills for beginners. I highly recommend everyone to take it not only for learning Git from scratch but also for refreshing own knowledge and filling the gaps. Thank you, Dmytro!
