May the Git --FORCE be with You

You know how to get things done with git: pull, add, commit, push; but have you mastered it like a Jedi does the force? Nothing is a more lasting record of our work then our git commits. In a galaxy where companies ask you for your Github account in lieu of, or in addition to a resume, we have one more reason to make sure that our commit history is as readable as our code itself.

We will cover the following:

• Git under the hood
• Structure of a git commit
• Rewriting commits
• Reordering commits
• Combining commits
• Improving commit messages
• Branching strategies
• Finding bugs using git
• Avoiding common pitfalls

You'll leave this session a jedi-level git master!
