We shall first understand what is Git and why do we need to use it. We shall then see how to install Git and configure Git. We will also look at the Git Workflow.

In this video, I am going to build a simple digital clock using python. But I will build this project step by step so you can see how I add and commit different changes to git repository.

We shall also see the three layers of git repository i.e. the working directory, staging area and git repository. I am going explain in detail how to add files to staging area and then remove files form staging area if required. We shall see how to commit changes. We shall also discuss about the significance of git staging area and why we need it.

Finally, we shall see what is a branch and how to create a branch and how to switch between different git branches. I will explain the significance of having multiple branch in your git repository and how we can merge changes from one branch to another.

Merging branch is an important feature of Git so we shall explain git merge by creating a real digital clock project.

This video also covers git reset and git checkout. We use git reset and checkout to point HEAD to a different commit or different version of the repository. We shall see the difference between reset and checkout commands.

Hopefully this video should give you a complete idea about git and how to start working with git.
