About the Course

In this course, you’ll learn how to keep track of the different versions of your code and configuration files using a popular version control system (VCS) called Git. We'll also go through how to set up an account with a service called GitHub so that you can create your very own remote repositories to store your code and configuration. Throughout this course, you'll learn about Git's core functionality so you can understand how and why it’s used in organizations. We’ll look into both basic and more advanced features, like branches and merging. We'll demonstrate how having a working knowledge of a VCS like Git can be a lifesaver in emergency situations or when debugging. And then we'll explore how to use a VCS to work with others through remote repositories, like the ones provided by GitHub. By the end of this course, you'll be able to store your code's history in Git and collaborate with others in GitHub, where you’ll also start creating your own portfolio! In order to follow along and complete the assessments, you’ll need a computer where you can install Git or ask your administrator to install it for you....

Awesome !!! I tried to learn git many times but things always slips over my head but I was fortunate enough to stumble upon this course and voila, I have learned so much in this course. Thanks a lot.

Awesome and well balanced course for working professionals. Clear explanations and coverage of typical use case scenarios. The labs were manageable and did not require a lot of time to complete them.

Despite the course being offered by Google, the quality is quite low and exercise are shallow. I do not recommend spending money on this course. Some of the problems you would encounter: The only real opportunity to learn is through the qweaklabs which is a clunky tool and you cannot save your work to refer to later on. The content is padded with too many repetitive information, like transcripts of all videos are inserted as filler material in the course material. There are irrelevant content such as security shell material or resume building tips which are inserted within the course material. Some of the quiz questions and course notes are outdated. You have to be proactive to get hands-on experience, the course doesn't encourage or require you to develop skills unless you spend extra time and get creative and implement the videos on your own example files. The files that the instructor works with are not shared with you. The pace of instructor is excruciatingly slow. Again filler material all over the course.

The worst course I have ever studied in Coursera after I have finished 38 courses. The instructor is very professional and conveyed information easily and clearly. The rating is because of the lab. I do not know why google is not monitoring the lab and ask another firm to manage this lab. I am extremely frustrated. I wasted a lot of time to contact the customer service on every lab. I have been waiting for days to solve the problem. I hope google should do something against this tragedy. There is a technical problem in each lab. I do not recommend this course at all.

my course module 2 in qwiklabs is not working fine. The package in lab had some problems and didnt allow me to perform the right steps as Python wasnt installed in the package. I tried downloading it and creating necessary files along the way & executed the commands as described, but the lab doesn't track my progress as done. And i dont know how to move ahead from here.

Instructor is simply reading the lecture. It maybe better to read on your own unless you want to get the certificate.
