| Jun 17, 2024 at 15:46 | comment | added | DHorse | Thanks everyone, this did help. @Xaqron et al. As a manager, I'm making it a best practice that as each Issue or Project Plan Task (Step?) is completed, a Git Stage will be done referencing it. Beyond syncing, this will differentiate exact code changes. | |
| Jun 27, 2023 at 9:41 | comment | added | Error - CPU Not Foud | @Xaqron - I agree with you. I still haven't seen a good/solid (but without all the unnecessary and gory details) out there. All tutorials explain how different parts of Git work, but never the general concept. Usually, they show a picture like the one in Rook's answer. Actually, if you google Git and look at images, the internet is flooded with pictures like that. | |
| Jun 27, 2023 at 9:31 | comment | added | Error - CPU Not Foud | @000 - Don't worry if you don't understand Git. Git is the incarnation of the concept "Why make it simple when you can make it complicated". It is like a backup system that allows you to f*** up your backups big time (and also screw up the work of everybody working in parallel with you). It is developed by minds that also like low-level, over-complicated things that want to be simple and powerful but all they manage to do is to be really dangerous (things like gun powder, C, Linux, etc). | |

| Dec 26, 2019 at 17:55 | comment | added | mminneman | One thing that was not clear to me from other answers was that if you only want to do a partial commit of your local repo, you stage the files you want to commit. Leave the others alone (like local testing config). When you commit, you commit your staged files. For example, in visual studio docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/repos/git/…. This is described in the purple box there. | |

| Jun 12, 2017 at 8:31 | comment | added | Xaqron | Git is hard to understand because there is no conceptual tutorial out there. All go through unnecessary details. | |
| Dec 15, 2016 at 17:47 | comment | added | Jonatan Öström | Git does indeed have its own vocabulary. And since every instruction is formulated in the special vocabulary it is hard to get started. To "stage" is to do git add file.ext for a specific file, or git add . to affect all modified and untracked files. Files that have been added in this way are said to be "staged" and they will be included in the next "commit". The commit is a snapshot of your work created e.g. with git commit -m "I wrote something". | |
