This is the best GitHub intro video so simplified
THIS is what I have been looking for. Simplified for an overwhelmed beginner. Thank you!
Very educational & lucid. I am an experienced developer who never used git, so it was very useful.
Amazing video, thank you! I wanted to know what GitHub was about and whether I needed it while I'm learning to code, and your intro was exactly what I needed.
Thank you for your kind words!
You are by far the most articulate and easy-to-follow educator in this field for me. There are no gaps between your explanations, which is really hard to do if you want to include learners of all levels. You've nailed it for me.
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I have been searching forever to find "THIS" TUT video that clearly explains VCS. BEST VS VIDEO EVER! Thank you, you are a LIFESAVER!
Thank you!
Its been a while since i used GitHub. This was nice and simple thanks for making this video. Awsome info nice and fast.
Never thought I would see a video on this topic. Recently started learning c# and there is so much a developer needs to know. Much appreciated!!
Glad it was helpful! With the internet, getting started is both harder and easier than ever. Information overload is a thing!
If you like my teaching style, check out the C# tutorials on this channel, and if you really want to go deep, check out the courses on SkillFoundry.io.
You're a LEGEND, THANK YOU!
Man I don’t know how to thank you- you are the first one that I found to be able to talk and explain everything clearly… finally I understood something about GitHub! You explained all so well… thank you so so so so so so so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your kind words!
The amount of information that is covered, the pace at which you cover, and especially the format and your exact choices in how you walked through all of these concepts and scenarios, is absolutely wonderful man. I am wildly grateful because this was my first search for a GitHub getting started or something, and I am so stoked I chose this first. Thank you Eric Weise(?) Skill Foundry.
Thanks so much!!!! This was just what I needed. Awesome Tutorial!
thanks champ
i just started my journey in tech and i must confess your github tutorial is spot on . I have not been able to push my code to a repo for days now but after seeing this tutorial i did it with ease .. I hope to see more tutorials from you . Thanks
You’re welcome!
I just wanna say Thank you so much ,I tried the Houdini project and I was so confused I didn't understand anything but this video helped so much for someone who is new to all of this, you got a new sub
You are welcome!
Thank you so very much for this thorough, clear, and concise video. I am a very slow learner and I watched your video one time and I was able to follow the steps to the T based off your directions and demo! I had to subscribe solely based on this video alone and because your demo was so detailed and you are a phenomenal teacher. I will be sharing your channel with many others in my "newbie tech circle" and on my LinkedIn profile. Please keep pushing out these videos!! Also, if you have knowledge and expertise in QA Software Testing... there is a definite need on CZcams for someone with your voice and teaching style. Please consider creating videos for novice software testers like myself!! Happy YouTubing!!!
Thank you for your kind words! We're constantly growing the catalog at Skill Foundry. After C# the next pieces will likely be in the data space.
Thank you.
Clear, easy to understand and manipulate! thanks!!!!!
You are welcome!
This came in at such a perfect time for me, thank you for this video!

Exactly what I needed today! You just read my mind Lol 😆😂🤣

You are welcome!
You rock bro! Thank you!!
You are welcome!
as usual - the best and the most useful content
as usual, thank you! :)
This helps so much. Thank you
You are welcome!
I really like how you mentioned the snobbiness of some developers, whatever works right?
Yep, I’ve never been one to get into flame wars over trivial things.
@@SkillFoundryIO I've got to say this was the best overview I've ever had on the basics of GitHub... So you're doing a great job, thank you for the video and time to reply!
This video was awesome, thank you!
Glad it helped!
Thanks!
You are welcome!
Thank you! I've done a lot of coding projects on my own before, but I've always been uncertain about how to proceed with trying to use version control. I want to make a portfolio to show off my projects, but I've been hampered by hesitation in making that first step.
Glad I could help!
Real good video, great explanation for real beginners. Excellent😊
Thank you!
thank you so much for your tutorial its so helpful . mantap men👍
Thanks for this tutorial! Though I would have slightly appreciated if you also shown where the buttons are for things, and where and how to make those things, but overall keep it up!
best for me
I like clicking things too, after all that's why there is a GUI in the first place.
Even if it takes a few seconds more, it really doesn't lower your productivity in a meaningful way.
Especially in something like Git. I'm getting older and spraying text into a console window is getting harder to read!
Great video, great kt
Thanks!
TL;DW: git status
TL;DW: You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.
Thx, great video. btw, I never heard an American use the term "bugger off" before 17:48 lol
What can I say? I try to be a citizen of the world. 😇
Thanks again Eric, I've got an issue I hope you could assist with. I've created a repository and uploaded my Terraform file which I've created using vs code, initially everything worked fine. I made my changes, saved to GitHub Desktop BUT once i click on PULL ORIGIN it says that the .terraform.lock file is too large. How can i delete this file without affecting the terraform config file?
Git doesn’t let you push files > 100 mb but you’re saying pull… is the actual message that the file name is too long… not the file size?
@@SkillFoundryIO I've put the large files in the ".gitignore" folder, and this has fixed the issue :)
Can you show us how to pull down a branch to review the contents a person wants us to see?
I’ll likely do a future video on branches.
For now just select it in GitHub desktop from the current branch dropdown. Then you can fetch and pull from it.
docs.github.com/en/desktop/working-with-your-remote-repository-on-github-or-github-enterprise/syncing-your-branch-in-github-desktop
Use git pull command
what does it mean to fork?
Make a copy of a repository for your own use, separating it from the original like taking a fork in the road.
It’s how to create a derivative of a project.
I didn't hear you mention fork. Fork copies someone else's repository into your repository. Once you make your improvements, you can offer your changes to the original author by creating a pull request. If your pull request is improved, your changes will be added to the original repository.
Yep, this video only covered the basics. Forking and branching in a future video when I find the time!
@@SkillFoundryIO Thanks, good job covering the basics.
Typical buckeye.
Always chomping at the bit to ensure everybody gettin’ they dang learn on.
Hello , im from Philippines, i need your help regarding deleting informations. Can someone help me?
Can you describe your issue in more detail?
Maybe I would use GitHub Desktop if there was a Linux version.
Pretty sure Linux users are required by law to only use CLI
How to make project run really?
save
The background "music" loop is distracting.
How do i get an editor window?
When using Git, you can use any editor you want. Open the directory and edit the files with your application of choice. Git simply tracks changes.
For me i dont care how it works just teach me how to use it!!!! every single tutorial i found is going back to what it is, i just want to understand how to use, i do not care about what it is. All i want to do is get a github started with my project so my friends can uuse the same projekt etc. the rest i dont care about.
I was with it until i heard the words “owned by microsoft”.
Yeeeesh! I would love to commit to learning how to incorporate GH into my daily life , but… lAny promises of safety/ security / privacy & “community” fly out the window when LittleBilly G sticks his nose in. 👃🏻
The same concepts apply to all git versions. You can install locally or use another service like git labs.
I have an instance running on my NAS
