65,469 PointsIf you want to dive deep into Git, I recommend the Git Basics course. Otherwise, the Introduction to Git course is fine. You can take both, too, if you want.

16,117 PointsI was just wondering the same: Should I do:
1) https://teamtreehouse.com/library/introduction-to-git + https://teamtreehouse.com/library/git-branches-and-merging
or
2) https://teamtreehouse.com/library/git-basics?
Why are there two courses with such a big overlap in content covered? Since I'm tight on time, I really don't want to just do all of them - especially as I've already been using git for a while. Mostly, I'm just keen to see whether there's any nifty things I've been missing that I could add to my sleeve to make life easier, and more specifically to practice branching & merging as I've not had to do much of that due to my previous workplace strongly preferring trunk-based development. (My new place works with branching a lot, hence the need.)
Both of the options seem to meet my needs on the face of it so if anybody is able to make a recommendation I'd be much obliged! :)

Hope it helps others too! :)
