Git & GitHub Notes
10 LESSONS · CODE SCOPE SERIES 4.1 + G.2–G.10The professional's safety net: what version control is, setup and your first repo, commits, branching and merge conflicts, GitHub repos, push, clone vs fork, pull requests and team flow, .gitignore and the classic mistakes, undoing anything (restore, reset, revert, stash), cherry-pick, GitHub Actions, and your first open-source pull request.
Git & GitHub: Commit, Push, Pull
The opener: version control in plain words, your first init/add/commit in the terminal, Git vs GitHub, push and pull, and the one rule — never commit secrets.
Git Setup + Pehla Repo
Install Git, set your name and email once, create your first repo with git init, and walk the full status → add → commit → log journey.
Branching — Parallel Kaam
Work in parallel without breaking the main line: branch, switch, merge — and fixing a merge conflict line by line when two changes collide.
GitHub Deep Dive
Your code's online home: creating a repo, the first push, a README that explains the project, and clone vs fork — plus a first look at Issues.
Pull Requests & Team Flow
How professionals ship together: push a branch, open a pull request, review the diff, fix, re-push, approve and merge — the full team flow.
.gitignore + Git ki Aam Ghaltiyaan
Keep junk and secrets out forever: .gitignore patterns, removing an already-tracked file with git rm --cached, and four classic mistakes fixed WRONG → RIGHT.
Git Undo — Galti Sudharna
Every mistake has an undo: restore a file, unstage, amend the last commit, reset vs revert (and which is safe on shared work), and the stash.
Git Stash + Cherry-Pick — Kaam Ko Rok Kar Sambhalna
Park half-finished work safely with stash (list, apply, pop, drop) and lift one single commit onto another branch with cherry-pick.
GitHub Actions — Auto Kaam Ka Taaruf
A robot on every push: what CI is, your first workflow YAML file, reading the green check and the red X, and what teams automate next.
Open Source Mein Pehla Qadam — Fork Se Pull Request Tak
Join a real project: fork, clone your fork, add the upstream remote, branch, change, push and open a pull request on someone else's repo.
