This course is created from the perspective of a DevOps Engineer who does not write much application code. The author has taken a real-world project to explain the process from creating a repository to releasing code onto the production environment. This gives a complete understanding of the power of Git and GitHub. This course starts with installing Git on Windows, then you will set up an EC2 instance and install Git on Linux. After that, you will work with Git Bash and then create a repository on Git and GitHub. Post which you will clone a repository from GitHub and work with other developer code. Next, you will be working with commits on Git and GitHub. You will also be working with branches on Git and GitHub. Next, you will create a pull request and work with private repositories. Following that, you will revert changes from the working directory, staging area, and local repository and understand the concept of Git Rebase, Git Fetch, and Git Pull. Finally, you will understand DevOps Engineer roles on Git with the help of a project. By the end of this course, you will be able to get a complete understanding of the power of Git and GitHub. You will feel confident using Git and GitHub to manage your job as a DevOps engineer. You will also have set up a production-ready Git environment for your developers.
