About

Git is a version control system that helps multiple developers collaborate on a project. It tracks changes made to the project's files over time and allows you to revert to a previous snapshot if something goes wrong. Git's branching and merging capabilities help you work on new features or bug fixes, experiment safely, and integrate changes smoothly. This project offers you a chance to work and prepare your branches.

Graduate project

This project covers the core topics of the Introduction to Git course, making it sufficiently challenging to be a proud addition to your portfolio.

At least one graduate project is required to complete the course.

What you'll learn

Once you choose a project, we'll provide you with a study plan that includes all the necessary topics from your course to get it built. Here’s what awaits you:

Clone the remote repository and switch to the development branch.

Create a feature.

Merge the new feature to the main branch and delete the source branch.

Cherry-pick the new feature from the main branch and revert it to the original state.

Restore a file to a previous state.

Merge the new feature.

Create a release and fix the bug.
