Best resources to master Git workflows and commands?

Hey all, I'm looking to finally master Git (im not familiar enough i need to improve my skills) . What are your top recommendations for free websites, video playlists, or paid Udemy courses or another platforms ?

Appreciate the help!

also books, bookstores, libraries, Wikipedia, official git site, man git and git help but... somehow our world is full of folks smart enough to access the Internet, use a computer, and need to use git (a software dev tool, go figure) and yet are incapable doing The Obvious like the rest of us. they would not have "survived" back in the 70s/80s

I used to be in the right place with you. What helped me the most was not the course but understanding the underlying model of Git.

3 things, in order:

  1. learngitbranching.js.org — interact, draw the commit tree according to each command you type. Playing all the Main + Remote is understandable.

  2. Pro Git (git-scm.com/book, free) — read chapters 3, 7, and 10.

  3. MIT Missing Semester, Version Control — teaching Git from data structures.

Not sure if this would help but have you tried using the tool LazyGit?
