Git and GitHub for Beginners — Complete Free Tutorial

Learn Git and GitHub from zero with 10 original, hands-on chapters: repositories, commits, history, branching, merging, conflicts, remotes, pull requests, safe undoing and team workflows. Every chapter includes exact commands, expected output and a practice checklist.

This complete Git course takes you from an empty folder to confident collaboration on GitHub. Each chapter is written for absolute beginners: what each command actually does to your repository, the exact output you should expect, the small set of commands used daily, and — just as important — how to undo mistakes safely without losing work. You will learn the mental model first (staging area, commits, branches, remotes), then apply it to real team work: feature branches, pull requests, code review and resolving merge conflicts. By the end, version control will feel automatic and you will never fear losing a file again.
