This got me up and running with git tonight. Very happy with quality of teaching in this tutorial. By the 49 min mark I had all the knowledge needed to get some work done. I knew how to setup ssh keys so I went ahead and uploaded my public key and I was off to commit land.
I know a guy who has a great tutorial on how to set up SSH keys with GitLab. 😄 Thanks for the kind words. I'm a big fan of GitLab and I really enjoyed making this video. Hoping the RUclips algo starts to see it and it gets a bit more visibility. Enjoy commit land. It's a great place to be! ruclips.net/video/4f1MJuGfjx4/видео.html
I'm a big fan of Git, but to hear my passion for the tools can help someone get up to speed with GitLab and Git really makes me feel useful. And everyone needs to feel useful. Thanks for watching!
I'd like to thank you very much for this video! Simple, straight forward, no beating around the bush. Usually I have my problems with "learning videos", too much chatter, not enough useful content, but you make me want to use git and gitlab!
Thanks for the kind words! My channel is aimed more at advanced developers than newbies, so I try to skip the introductory theory and stuff. This obviously isn't your first rodeo when it comes to developing software. I too prefer tutorials that just get into it. I actually struggled on whether I wanted to include the 'gitlab vs git' and 'what is a repo' stuff at the start, but felt since this was a full tutorial, it was sorta needed. Thanks again. Hopefully I'll hit some other topics that interest you as well!
I believe that videos explaining the background information of a software product are very important as they provide a deeper understanding of its use and purpose. However, I also think it's beneficial to separate the training of command sequences from these explanatory videos. This approach can help viewers focus on the specific content they are interested in, whether it's learning about the software's background or mastering its commands. It's always possible to include a note or a link in the video to direct viewers to the related content. This way, your audience can easily navigate between learning about the software's background and its practical use. Keep up the great work! (Disclaimer: I'm german and I used some help from AI to give you this answer. I couldn't have put it better myself.)
The video moves quickly and covers a lot of material. If all 2 hours made sense to you, I hereby grant you 'expert' status. Update your LinkedIn at will.
Thank you so much! I'd love it to have a million views, but it's really over-performing all my other videos, so that makes me really happy. So do comments like this!
This was pretty advanced and fast paced. If you kept up, there's not much left to learn about Git. We covered almost all of it! Thanks for watching. I really enjoyed making this.
Thanks for the kind words! I often make videos when I solve a really difficult problem. It always makes me smile when those videos get views, because nobody would ever view them if they didn't have the exact same problem. Makes me feel good to know I'm helping out. With videos like this one I've tried to expand my reach a little bit. Wondering if my 2 hour vides on Git and GitLab will get any traction. Here's hoping!
@@cameronmcnz I moved to DevOps last year, before that I was into automation testing. I was overwhelmed with the number of tools and the git especially, because I never used it previously 😅. Being a fresher in git, your videos are of great help and the way you explain things is GREAT. Till date, i especially search for your videos because they don't have any bs in them, "To the point and exact explanation", that one might need to get the things done. I will definitely watch your git course, there are always new things to learn. नमस्ते 🙏🏻😊
There's a full write up on how to learn GitHub and Git that goes with this video over on TheServerSide. Check it out! www.theserverside.com/video/Full-Git-and-GitLab-tutorial-for-beginners
Your newsletter sign up link is not in the description (currently). Please add. Thanks for the great comprehensive tutorial. Helped clear some concepts up.
Thanks! I'm doing a series for GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, VSCode and Eclipse. Similarly structured content for each. Hopefully it makes learning Git and GitLab a bit easier!
Thank you for all your videos. Do you have a video about Git LFS? I am dealing with large files that I want to connect with GItHub. How will Git LFS help me with this? Thanks.
Do a git status. The folder you are in is not a git repo. Look for a hidden .git folder there or in a parent folder. My bet is there isn’t one. You may need to run the command in a sub folder where the project is.
I've always been a big fan of GitLab. Git is the core technology, but they've got a great suite of tools built around it. (I'm a long-time Java dev too) Good luck in the new job!

Wish I could like this video 10k times, it´s magnificent
Well, you start by registering 10,000 separate RUclips accounts...
Thank you for the kind words. I really enjoyed putting this video together.
This is just a fantastic tutorial and Cameron is extremely likeable born to do this stuff. Thanks so much for helping me start my engineering journey
thank you. I was struggling a lot with git. Now I decided to watch video and your video helped a lot

Thanks for the support. I had a lot of fun making this Git and GitLab tutorial!
I learned a lot from this course , ty so much.

Brilliant🤩🤩 Thank you very much for such a nice explanation. It could not be better than this!
Thanks for watching! I'm a huge fan of GitLab. They make putting a tutorial like this together super easy.
very helpful
Glad you enjoyed it! I've always felt GitLab was an awesome tool.
Your videos have always been a time saver for me.
The random issues i face are somehow almost exact what you videos are all about😅😅.

@@cameronmcnz awesome, looking forward to the GitHub one. :)
Thank's good work bravo👍
There are not enough GitLab courses and tutorials out there. I hope this one helps fill the void!
Thank you i m looking for how dev teams works on the same repo gitlab collaboration
Thank you for all your videos. Do you have a video about Git LFS? I am dealing with large files that I want to connect with GItHub. How will Git LFS help me with this? Thanks.
informative!
when i 'git push origin', i get the error message 'fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git'
Do a git status.

You may need to run the command in a sub folder where the project is.
ah okay got it, thank you so much for the help. Video is great so far as well, you make a great teacher!@@cameronmcnz
I'm got hired as junior java dev in a company but they are using gitlab and not github so I'm here lol.
I've always been a big fan of GitLab. Git is the core technology, but they've got a great suite of tools built around it.
(I'm a long-time Java dev too)
Good luck in the new job!
@@cameronmcnz your explanation is crystal clear, thank you
1:10:00
You watched to 1:10?!? You’re a hero!
@@scrumtuous thanks
Bro you kind of sound and look like Alec Baldwin
The young and handsome Alec Baldwin, or the old and curmudgeonly Alec Baldwin?
A compliment either way. I'll take it!
DILF!!!
