what is git-github-course fr?

This repository is a hands-on course for learning Git and GitHub, designed to take someone from the basics to professional workflows. Git is a version control system, which means it tracks changes to your files over time. If you have ever wished you could undo a mistake or see exactly what your project looked like last week, Git solves that problem by keeping a detailed history of your work. The material walks through the entire process of managing a project. It starts with the very first steps, like installing Git, setting up your name and email, and initializing a new project folder. From there, it covers how to save snapshots of your work using "commits," how to review your project history, and how to use branches. Branches let you create a separate, parallel version of your project so you can experiment with a new feature or fix a bug without accidentally breaking your main project. The course also covers merging those branches back together and introduces more advanced concepts like "rebasing," which is a way to keep your project history clean and linear. This resource is meant for beginners, aspiring developers, or anyone who writes code but feels shaky on the fundamentals of version control. A product manager who occasionally edits configuration files, or a founder putting together an early prototype, would find this practical. The course relies heavily on step-by-step practice exercises in VSCode, so you are not just reading about commands, you are actually running them in a real environment. It also shows how to do everything using the VSCode interface, which is less intimidating than typing commands into a terminal. A notable choice in this course is its focus on the "happy path" first, meaning it starts with smooth, error-free scenarios before diving into complex problems like merge conflicts. This approach helps beginners build confidence before tackling the messier realities of working on a team. It also includes strong warnings about protecting the hidden system folder that Git creates, emphasizing common mistakes that can corrupt a project.
