0x1.2 : Git Basics pt. 1

As you have seen on the lesson 0x0 on how to create a repository.

Today you will learn how to initialize and use some basic Git commands on a repository.

To do that, Open a terminal and follow these steps :

• 1 - Make a directory by the name of your repository.

  mkdir MyNewRepository
  

  2 - enter the folder and initialize it.

  git init
  

  so you can use this command to initialize your repository.

  3 - Create a file named Readme.md

  touch Readme.md
  

  4 - get the status of your repository

  git status
  

  As you can see here, git status will give you the status of your commits, tracked, and untracked files

  • Commit = a changed file that you sent to the staging area.
  • Tracked = a file that is waiting for commits.
  • Untracked = a changed file that wasn’t sent to the staging area yet.

  5 - Add the Readme.md file to the staging area.

  git add Readme.md
  

  6 - Commit that staged file, and add a comment to it.

  git commit -m "Adding Readme File"
  

  • -m “The comment you want to give to that comment”.
    • Do a git status to check if the commit was done.

  7 - Use git log, to get the logs and check whaat was changed

  git log
