Version Control

| English | Russian |

This repo aggregates useful links, tutorials and infographics for those learning to use Git so that they'll be able to develop their own projects with confidence, work on collaborative projects with their friends/classmates or contribute to existing open-source software.

Install Git

Common links

  • Git official site: https://git-scm.com
  • Desktop GUI clients (optional and only for those who absolutely cannot live without them; we recommend you to get comfortable with the CLI shell):
    • most IDEs (including but not limited to WebStorm, PyCharm and other JetBrains products, Xcode, Visual Studio) include their own Git tools and using them is far more appropriate that installing a separate GUI client if you use an IDE;
    • GitHub Desktop for Mac and Windows (easy to use but very limited in functionality)
    • SourceTree for Mac and Windows
    • Tortoise Git for Windows
    • More examples: https://git-scm.com/downloads/guis

Windows

If you only want Git itself, download the installer at https://git-scm.com/download/win. Alternatively, if you'd prefer to use GitHub's desktop client, keep in mind that it includes a bundled version of Git, so you don't need it installed separately.

macOS

The easiest way to install Git on macOS is to install the Xcode Command Line Tools. Your system will automatically prompt you to do so the first time you try to run Git, so there's actually nothing special you should do.

Alternatively, if you want a newer version, you can install it from the official package at https://git-scm.com/download/mac or using the Homebrew package manager via $ brew install git.

Linux

Use your distro's package manager to install the corresponding package. Examples:

  • Debian-based systems (including Ubuntu with its flavors and Linux Mint): $ sudo apt-get install git-all
  • Fedora: $ sudo dnf install git
  • Arch: $ sudo pacman -S git
