Git & GitHub Masterclass
Version control, from an empty folder to a merged pull request.
A complete-beginner path through Git, GitHub, and GitHub Desktop — commits, branches, merges, remotes, and pull requests, with nothing assumed. Ends with your first real open-source contribution and a full end-to-end capstone.
