Git Playground

This is a collection of test files for people to use to play around with git in a language/framework-agnostic environment.
The instructions directory contains 5 files that walk through git commands that should cover all the basics for working with git on your own and as part of a group. I made a walkthrough for my coderaising group that was well received, so I decided to make this as a more general, language-agnostic learning tool.

Instructions:

1. Getting Started - How to get a copy of this repo to work with on your computer.

2. Poking Around - Git basics: branching, saving changes

3. Merging and History - Combining branches, poking through the commit history and checking out previous versions of the code.

4. Collaboration Concepts - Code-free, high-level look at using git in a team environment, or for contributing to an open source project.

5. Collaborating - Walkthrough of commands and steps useful when collaborating.

Future plans

I'd like to add a brief command reference for these and other commands at some point.
