Git for Everyone

Git basics - a general workflow

There are many Git workflows out there, I heavily suggest also reading the atlassian.com Git Workflow article as there is more detail then presented here.

The two prevailing workflows are Gitflow and feature branches. IMHO, being more of a subscriber to continuous integration, I feel that the feature branch workflow is better suited.

When using Bash in the command line, it leaves a bit to be desired when it comes to awareness of state. I would suggest following these instructions on setting up GIT Bash autocompletion.
