Sir not only you teach well but your video editing and thumbnail designing skills are also top notch.
aww thank you! I spend wayyyy too long working on the thumbnails, but honestly I'm not much of a designer. Most of what you see if pre-existing clip art and graphics that I combine together, so it doesn't require much skill. I use a free website called Canva. Glad you like the videos!
@@ColtSteeleCode Your great way of teaching complex stuffs are what made me fall in love with your teaching style and videos.
Keep up creating the good work sir.
@Malik Bagwala Haha the fonts are the hardest part for me! Give me some good font names and I'll use them!
He did seemingly render black borders on the sides of the entire video, though, that's a bit strange. :P
@@ColtSteeleCode I was going to save give your thumbnail artist a raise, but it's you :)
Colt, you are a life-saver! I’ve been stuck in a number of tutorials and books that I bought but never read, but you cracked the code wide-open in 15 minutes! Beautiful work, good voice, good material! You are awesome!
This was by far the best git tutorial I have seen. I'm a programmer myself, and I already know how to use Git, but I really like seeing tutorials like this. And yours is very clear and simple. Which makes it easy to understand for a beginner point of view. Many tutorials focus too much on complicated code instead of focusing on git itself. Yours was on point. Well done!
Hands down!
Agreed. I'm a new to Git and my brain finally works and understands how Git works. I watched Mosh's video and not sure if I understood until I watched yours, your tutorials totally made sense because most of new programmers are familiar with HTML, CSS, JSON so you made it easier for them to understand how Git works. Good job!

I like the simplicity of your tutorial. Most of the times people make overly complicated tutorials that only end up discouraging beginners. You did a great job here focusing on what matters. Thank you!
You taught me in 15 minutes what my teacher couldn't in 2 hours.
Teachers taught you git? You got cool teachers, buddy :)
@@androov2797 hahah
You wanted to say , he taught you what 1 hour tutorials couldn't 😂
@@arbihamolli3445 what language are you speaking?

It's just amazing to know that there are video here on youtube that you can actually really learn from. No fillers, no beating around the bush...just straight to the point. Well done Colt.
Some notes for clarification:
3:13 In computing, ls is a command to list computer files or directories and sort by size in descending order (biggest to smallest).
3:56 The touch command is used to change a file’s “Access“, “Modify” and “Change” timestamps to the current time and date, but if the file doesn’t exist, the touch command creates it.
Thanks a lot for this tutorial!
does touch works for windows
@@sfafsashfdh6589 yes
Thanks! Really helpful.
By default with no arguments ls sorts alphabetically
@@sfafsashfdh6589 "ls" and "touch" work in the terminals of Unix/Linux operating systems, not Windows, at least not natively.
i legit just spent 4 hours in a lecture on git, didnt understand shit and this guy makes it crystal clear in 15 mins. Thank you, sir!
I am not a coder , I am a project manager trying to understand how the coders work and how to track their work on Git, this was a very good video introduction for me to get the basic idea of how and what goes on in Git. Thank you for teaching & sharing.
I've been trying to figure git out for the past week and have been getting very frustrated. I started this video and 15 minutes later, I am no longer pulling my hair out. I honestly can't thank you enough for this video!!! Your channel will be the first one I go to when trying to learn something new for now on!
This is one of the best introductions to GIT I have come across online. Well done Colt!
Appreciate the straight forward, no nonsense approach with concrete examples. Stuff I looked at before this gave the impression not only that git is hard, but that teaching it's hard, lol. Apparently not.
Spent a day on learning Git, didn't do much. Spent ~16 minutes on this, now I'm a web developer
Bro where are you from ?
One important thing is because the stuff that you learn at learning Git didn't resolved yes. When you re-learn about git, It's much easier compared to first-learn
Re-learn is much easier than first-learn. You learn this video is re-learn
bruh you can use Git on stuff that isn't web based, I've used it for firmware development on microcontrollers.
@Bob , I think you need not do anything to embed Git to Editor. Git makes changes to the files. Files are opened by the editors. It's editor's job to refresh the current document in real time as soon as the document status is changed. Notepad++ tells you to reload the currently opened document when you make changes to that document from somewhere else (notepad or word or replaced that document with something else). All I am saying is Editors should take care of it, you don't need to worry.
Please someone correct me if I'm wrong, I am only guessing based on what has been taught in here in this video.
every time i come back to this video. I can't stop me from saying that this is literally the best short git tutorial ever.
This video is perfect! Length, quality, amount of content.
It's enough git to get your toes wet so that you have some idea how it works and what you can do with it. With this amount of knowledge you can start with your own project and put it to some use.
At the same time it's not overwhelming the viewer and blowing the tutorial up into a full multiple hour long tutorial that aims to turn you into a tech wizard.
I've been using git for years on small projects and had zero idea what I was doing. Thank you for finally sorting me out.
One of the best tutorials ever! Loved how you wrote it all in Notion
Working with GitHub when I had no idea what I was doing because it was taught poorly was not fun. Now that you have explained everything so clearly, I want to try again. I am ready to have fun with Git again. thanks for teaching us this tool in a simple, easy to understand way!!!!!
I watched this in 1.5x and as a result I learned git in 10 minutes.
"Learn Git In 15 Minutes"
Working as intended. This has got to be the most comprehensible git tutorial on YT, the notes are a great reading material too.
"Detached head. Sounds very violent." -Colt Steele looool
I've just spent 15 minutes of my life in the most efficient way possible. Thanks
It's just amazing how you can put some many important information on such a short time without compromising quality. Congrats!
It is way too fast. that is how he did it. Actually took 16 min. Be ready to watch it several times and keep your mouse ready on the Pause button.
I was left with more questions than answered. Glossed over everything way too quick, with very little depth of explanation. I cannot believe the comments on this, yours included.
@@waskjohnson2033 I believe that everyone has different teaching style needs and that's ok. Good luck on your journey, my friend!
I watched too many videos to understand Git but i didn't learn it, and now finally after watching this video I'm so confident and I'm now using it effectively
Thank you for all you do to help us learn! I've watched 5+ videos on the subject but this is the only video I have watched and actually feel like I understand what goes on in git and how it all works. You rock!
This. This is the single video that taught me the basics of git. Well done sir, I've tried at least 10-15 other, hour long videos before your 15-minute one, and you explained it perfectly. 15/10 would watch again lol
Colt, you have a skill of explaining a topic in step-by-step method which can be easily followed to understand the bigger picture of things. Your courses and RUclips videos are such a great help.
P.S. I love your out-of-context humor.
I'm BARELY starting my journey with software engineering and I know nothing about this tech world (besides very little knowledge of html and CSS) but you explained everything in such an easy and digestible way that I was able to follow along for the most part.
Git is super important when working as a team on projects. Avoid push to master and force push unless some kind of emergency. Lead dev no likey.
(In github at least) obligatory Pull Request is in my opinion da best. You get a chance to explain your code, get code improvement suggestion from fellow coworkers and change is properly documented and explained for your future coworker and maybe u already have left the company by then so no crazy loose code changes and future coworker no need to go all out sherlocking like dafuq is this code feature and go all whyyy 😭
Felt like sharing this important information, DOCUMENT ALL THE THINGS. Hope this helped someone out there. Kthnxbye
Finally understood 3 hours worth of lectures in 15 mins. Thank You.
video: learn git in 15 minutes
me: learn git in 7.5 minutes
lol. Me too!
you know it's a good tutorial when you learn more than you bargained for. I always had trouble understanding how css/html/js relate to one another and i learned it by accident through this video! you'd be surprised how many tutorials gloss over that stuff.
By far the best tutorial on GIT simple nd well structured.. Please more of these tutorials 💪🙏
I watch hell lotta youtubers but when it comes down to the best, You top the list. I love the way you teach.
*All commands:*
- `git status` - get status of current folder
- `git add ` - add file to git
- `git add .` - add all files to git
- `git merge ` - merge a branch into the master
- `git commit -m ` - commit changes
- `git checkout ` - jump to a change
- `git checkout ` - switch to a branch
- `git branch` - list branches
- `git branch ` - create branch
brother is awesome he is very professional and kind and explains everything very well in the simplistic way possible
Lol how do u even have time to be full time on udemy an instructor in person and still post on RUclips. I think u save some kind of super powers 🤔
If you think I have super powers, you should check out some of the other Udemy instructors! I'm friends with Stephen Grider, who is an absolute machine. He cranks out a new course in 2 months, while I would take 4 months to do the same thing. I have no idea how he does it. Honestly, it's pretty difficult to balance everything. I end up recording these RUclips videos at 1 or 2 in the morning over the weekend so I can have them edited and uploaded each week. Right now is especially crazy because I'm working on a new exciting project (not on Udemy), a complete overhaul of my Web Developer Bootcamp course (on Udemy), and all these RUclips videos. It's not the most relaxing schedule, but I do enjoy most of the work!
@@ColtSteeleCode are you updating Web developer Bootamp course? Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Because of your Web Developer Bootcamp Today I got job as Frontend Developer.
@@ColtSteeleCode you re da man, that udemy course is gold. if i ll be a programmer by the end of the upcomming year it is mainly because of you. keep up the good work
@@ColtSteeleCode I've literally just started your Web Developer Bootcamp course on Udemy - should I hold off for overhauled version instead?
I do wonder how much money you make.
You will be one of the greatest RUclips instructors of all time. Calling it now.
LOL, From the thumbnail I thought Kurzgesagt uploaded a video and was confused why would they do a video on Git.
Exactly 😂
😂 same!
Me too 😂
😅😅😅 true. It's same pattern
hahahhaahhaha
I think the best video on git on RUclips. You explained it very smoothly. I've wasted my life 1-2hr to watch git video but nothing happened.
Your 15 min video contains a lot.... Genuinely i going to share this video ❤
Thank you for this clear and concise introduction to git!
Agreed. Thanks for good video on Git.
I had to take a break from your course to do this project, I'm a full-stack web engineer but I was self taught and I only learnt the bare minimum necessary to build and deploy applications. I have had the most awful day trying to learn new technologies to implement Laravel and to do it properly this time, no shortcuts. And it just always seems like there's another extension upon extension upon extension covering things that I didn't even know I needed that I now have to learn before I can even begin. I'm learning a lot but it's so frustrating because I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED CODING YET. And along these lines I found myself having to learn git as well, I just clicked the first video that came up without looking to see who the author was and just felt instantly relieved to hear your familiar voice. Idk if you'll even see this, but thank you so much.
Wow your project is including Python/Flask, Rails, and React. Cool :) I hope to hear from it soon. It looks awesome!
Thank you, I've trying for a week to understand the concept of "git" and how to use it and what does it have to do with "github" but this video tutorial solved the whole puzzle, now it's clear Thanks a lot.
Hi Colt, your Web Developer Bootcamp course was one of the first I took on my path to Open source Development. Can't thank you enough for the amazing content & teaching you provide! Always a Fan.
This video is top tier. I'm a man who believes in delivering your content in a concise matter and you do it well.
"So lets GIT started" ;)
i started writing something similar to this then i saw your comment lol
git gud
these puns are GIT-ing uncontrollable
Git out
Extremely good video man, good pacing, good structure... Just nailed it. Ive gone from 0 to 80% in 15 minutes... Great job!
Lol I'm used to hearing you say "welcome back" on the beginning of every video on udemy it feels weird not to hear that on RUclips.
im a newbie and just started learning how to code and i can honestly say u teach better than my instructor.. i attend two hrs of lecture not understanding sh#t then i come here and u explain everything pretty clean and clear... Thank u sir!
Really good within 16 minutes almost 👍🏻, efforts appreciated 🙌🏻
this is one of the best tutorials I have ever seen, even after 3 years... bravo
Thanks for this great tutorial. Your explanation is very nice.
Thank you so much! Im so stressed, i just started my first job and i really didn’t understand these concepts. Now what’s happening is waay clearer
“DeTatChed HeaD, SouNdS veRY Violent”
How many years I regularly tried to 'get' git! This one simple video did it for me. Awesome. Thank you!
Extremely good explanation! Thank you! You should be on Patreon!
HANDS DOWN !!! The best Git tutorial so far, definitely worth watching but would recommend 1.25x speed
Thanks, I will recommand this to my student-friends who still have trouble with git.
I'm also really enjoing your react-course on Udemy.
Keep up the great work!
awesome tutorial - i went through this and it really helped!
right
Thank you! I'm a case of diving in way too deep without knowing what I'm actually doing with git and github, and got completely lost in what the heck was going on. This gives me a foundation of at least the logic behind everything. Gives me a jumping off point.
detached HEAD - sounds very violent :D
never mind. you can checkout another anytime :)
This is the first GIT tutorial that I suddenly understood everything! I get it now. Thank you for this! Subscribed.
Hey Colt, could you do a video on using MySQL Workbench? Thanks.
man, I was on a loop of procrastinating on how should or when should i start learning git! And this video has all the basic and important features that a beginner can immediately use. THANKS ALOT!
"My search of a short and admirable git tutorial ends here" - Christopher Columbus
I was here reading some notes and was not getting Git. You have made it as clear as crystal.
Dear Colt, I find your video great, and like others I think that you're very good at teaching the fundamentals and extracting out what matters to begin with git. If I were to create French subtitles for your video, would you consider including them? (Remark: currently, attempting to contribute subtitles I'm greeted with the error message "The video you requested isn't enabled for community contribution.") Alternatively, would you allow me to share your video with my own subtitles with my students?
this is the most by far best tutorial for git, not gonna lie I was confused by the others tutorials but, with his explanations its the most easiest thing to do. Thank you very much Colt Steele, I will check your other tutorials.
When you are here to learn Git in 15 min and you learn it in 14 !!!! :D
I'm getting into git for the first time following my DevOps career and this video helped me a lot. Thanks Colt!
Well, I'll probably get Git later but it's nice to see such a well made video!
Git gud
Hands down best git intro. So clearly explained. I feel iluminated.
love how you say "tiny bit" difficult to learn. totally.
Trying to learn git, and who pops out? The same guy that taught me data structures and algs in JS! Instant sub.
You are going to Heaven.
so threatening
So ambiguous. 🤣
So true
@@breakingthemaskskkk
Thank you!
I just had a 5 hours class today on GIT and it was a mess.
Let me tell you, you did a better job explaining it in 15min. Thank you!
0:00 I think I hear Tom Holland in Avengers!
I'm beginning the GA SEI bootcamp and started learning about Git with them, this was great supplemental knowledge. Much appreciated and well done.
6:28 "General Kenobi"
thought I was the only one with that reaction
I've watched a lot of videos and read a few documentations on Git and I have to say this is the most clear and concise on getting started with Git. Great work Colt!
"Whether you're on a Mac or PC".... you forgot the third superior option bro Linux
Mac means Mac, PC is PC so it Can be also Windows and Linux lol.
Linux is no where superior to Mac or Windows, it depends from person to person.
Arigato Sensei. I was one of your students in Python Bootcamp (Udemy). Always following your lead. Thanks a lot for this video.
Best intro I have seen so far (4 years later).
Currently in the middle of my Springboard Software Engineering Bootcamp where Colt is my "teacher" and it is so weird seeing him on youtube lol. He already taught me Git on there, but I was just wanting a refresher/in-depth video haha.
Thanks Colt for all that you do!
I'm new (more or less) to Git and this video made it easy to understand the basic premise and principles of how Git works. Thanks
I have never truly understood git before. This was the best explanation of it I have ever seen -- I now actually have an idea what's going on. Thanks for uploading this!
so, what can i say, almost 2 hours of courses, resumed in fifteen minutes, thank you GOD, thanks you, My man! really Thank you!!
Well done! I appreciate the good flow and pace without stuttering! If it is too fast - there is a back button.
I have watched a lot of video about git and learned little, this 15 min was a well spent 15 min. Thank you
Colt this is a very good video! I usually stop around 6th minute or so but you didn't repeate the same thing over and over again. Very well structured video! Thumbs up!
Hey!!! How do you manage to blow my mind with the quality of your content and thorough explanation every single time. You are amazing and that's on PERIOD!!!
I've been using git for years and keep returning to this video when I get confused. Thanks for the helpful tutorial!
Best 15 mins I ever invested! Thanks a lot for that, it was really helpful.
Thank you for keeping it simple yet making so much sense. I just started a coding bootcamp this week and of all the RUclips videos I've watched, your delivery is the most helpful. Definitely using your channel more!
Colt's a genius .idk how he does, his ideas and presentation top notch and simple.
Hi Colt, I recently completed your MySQL course on Udemy. I had no idea you had a youtube channel. I really like your style of teaching, so thank you for making learning fun for us.
Thanks indeed Colt Steele for this concise intro to the basic important features of using Git. Great short intro to using Git.
This is a great video. I learned alot in 15 minutes. I worked at Microsoft 6 times in 24 years and I always do support. I support software apps. I don't do dev stuff. I never really knew what all you could do with Git until I watched this. Thanks alot!
Gave enough info on the basic commands without going too overboard with technical terms! Very good video to show beginners!
