Journal / topic tag
A focused reading collection for git basics.
This tag brings together the reading that helps you interpret Git's everyday file states. Use it when you want to understand what changed, what is prepared for a commit, and what has actually been shared. The emphasis is on recognizable examples and review habits you can practice in a small repository. Treat the exercise as a chance to explain each file's state before relying on the next command.
Start with Git files explained, then repeat its staging exercise with one of your own project files. Inspect the result before adding shortcuts or automation. For a broader route through repository organization and collaboration, open the Git files hub; this page remains the filtered article collection for the fundamentals.
Large files need a storage decision before they need a Git command. Learn which assets belong in ordinary Git, which fit Git LFS, and which should stay in artifact storage or application backups.
Learn what Git actually records, how to choose the changes in a commit, and why saving, staging, committing, and pushing are separate steps. Build a practical review habit before your project grows.
