Stop memorizing Git commands. Start understanding how professional developers actually manage code.
Git can feel unforgiving when one wrong command appears capable of deleting hours of work. Branches become tangled, merge conflicts look intimidating, rejected pushes make no sense, and collaboration on GitHub introduces an entirely new set of rules. Git and GitHub for Modern Developers replaces that confusion with a practical, visual, project-based learning experience.
Through one continuous hands-on project, you will learn how Git records changes, how local and remote repositories interact, and how professional teams move code safely from an idea to a reviewed release. Clear diagrams, guided command labs, troubleshooting checklists, and realistic exercises help you understand not only which commands to use, but why they work and when they can cause damage.
Inside, you will discover how to:
- Build a reliable mental model of Git and version control
- Create repositories, stage changes, and write meaningful commits
- Recover deleted work and reverse mistakes safely
- Develop features using branches, stashes, rebases, and worktrees
- Connect local projects to GitHub using secure authentication
- Create, review, and merge professional pull requests
- Resolve merge and rebase conflicts without losing valuable work
- Contribute confidently to open-source projects using forks
- Organize team development with issues, releases, and proven workflows
- Automate testing and deployment with GitHub Actions
- Protect secrets, dependencies, branches, and repository history
- Use GitHub Copilot and coding agents without surrendering human judgment
- Build a credible, job-ready GitHub portfolio
Whether you are a self-taught programmer, coding student, junior developer, data professional, open-source contributor, or experienced developer who still feels uncertain about Git, this guide gives you the practical foundation needed to work with confidence.
Build cleaner histories. Collaborate without fear. Recover from mistakes. Ship better software.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
