Common git challenges
Git is a distributed version control system originally created by Linus Torvalds (of Linux fame). Much like Linux itself, git is immensely powerful yet can be intimidating at first.
Below are some common challenges when working with FreeSewing code in git:
- Change your commit message for the most recent commit
- Editing FreeSewing content on GitHub
- Save often, then rewrite history like a boss
TIP
Git what now?
If you’ve never heard of git, if you’re not even sure what a version control system is, I recommend this Learn Git in 15 Minutes introduction video.
If you’ve used git before, but always felt confused about how it works, check out this Git For Ages 4 And Up video. A bit longer, but it well worth a watch.
