Course review: Introduction to Git and Github

This course review of Introduction to Git and Github is part of a specialization called Google IT Automation with Python Professional Certificate at Coursera.

In this course you will learn to do everything you normally need when working with Git and Github, either alone or in a larger project. I find this useful and a good way to start with Git, even if you are using PyCharm and don’t need to execute Git commands in a command prompt. Knowing the differences between a git fetch and git pull, when to git rebase and when it’s not proper to do so while working on remote repos is very useful knowlege.

Besides getting to know all the common commands, you also learn some best practice when working with remote repos on Github together with other people. Overall a good start to get to know Git and Github in my opinion!
