Introduction

Completed

In this module, you'll learn how to work with Git in Visual Studio Code. Git is a version control system created by Linus Torvalds in 2005 for the development of the Linux kernel. Linus is also the person that started the development on the Linux kernel. As you may know, Linux is an operating system that is using many commands. There are some GUIs for Linux, but most users will use the powerful commands in Linux.

This also means that Git is a command-based application. You'll learn how to install Git and look at some basic commands. Afterwards, we'll look how they are implemented in Visual Studio Code and how you can use them.

You will also get an overview of a Git project structure with local and remote repositories. At the end of this module, you'll know about the init, clone, push, pull, sync, and fetch commands.
