Learn Git - Episode 4 - Visual Studio Code and GitHub

Join John Papa and Peter de Tender and explore Episode 4 of this four-part Microsoft Learn Git series.

Git can seem a little cryptic at first, and it can even be frustrating at times. But if you learn it step by step, you'll find that there's a reason Git is quickly becoming the world's most popular version control system—not just for software developers, but also for teams that write documentation and collaborate on other work.

In Episode 4 you will use the GitHub integration in Visual Studio Code, including authentication, publishing repos, and viewing your repo timeline. Then, you will use GitHub to find open-source projects and tasks to contribute to. You'll discover how to create pull requests and communicate with project maintainers effectively to get your changes accepted and learn about the benefits of getting involved with open-source communities.
