WEBVTT 00:06.380 --> 00:12.670 Let's create a directory where we'll store the files for our project. 00:12.680 --> 00:17.310 To create a directory, let's use MK Dir command. 00:17.330 --> 00:20.340 Let's run it with the name of the directory. 00:20.360 --> 00:28.400 I'll run MK Dear Demo and to change the Active Directory to the newly created one. 00:28.430 --> 00:31.040 I'll type SID demo. 00:31.070 --> 00:37.790 These two commands work on all operating systems Windows, Mac, iOS or Linux. 00:37.820 --> 00:42.110 Now we can also refer to it as a repository. 00:42.140 --> 00:50.570 This directory will contain all the files and since we are in the repository we need to initiate gear 00:50.600 --> 00:52.820 to start using it. 00:52.850 --> 00:55.740 To do this we'll run the following command. 00:55.760 --> 00:59.660 Git in it by the way for you to know. 00:59.660 --> 01:03.020 Just like getting it all git commands. 01:03.020 --> 01:08.300 Begin with the keyword git and followed by the command. 01:08.330 --> 01:14.660 Let's check this repository with the ls command tile type ls dash la. 01:14.690 --> 01:18.990 Notice this newly created dot git directory. 01:19.010 --> 01:27.740 All information related to get is stored in this directory, in this repository and this dot git directory 01:27.740 --> 01:31.460 and its contents are normally hidden from view. 01:31.460 --> 01:39.160 And the only thing you should know that it is there never added any files in this dot git directory. 01:39.170 --> 01:41.800 It can corrupt the whole repository. 01:41.810 --> 01:48.550 So now when we've initialized git, let's add a few files to our repository. 01:48.560 --> 01:55.880 You can add any files to this repository which you consider are good for your learning process. 01:55.910 --> 01:59.170 As for me, for now, I'll add one file. 01:59.180 --> 02:01.900 I'll type Dutch file one. 02:01.910 --> 02:05.230 This Dutch command will create an empty file. 02:05.240 --> 02:12.040 Now, when something is changed in our repository, let's see how good reacts to it. 02:12.050 --> 02:14.440 Let's type git status. 02:14.450 --> 02:20.500 You have to remember this command because it is one of the most used git commands. 02:20.510 --> 02:24.010 This command shows the status of your repository. 02:24.020 --> 02:32.900 It also provides such information as files which are untracked, which are tracked and what changes 02:32.900 --> 02:39.860 are and which is the current branch and what is the status of the current branch. 02:39.860 --> 02:45.440 So you should use this git status command very often. 02:45.440 --> 02:52.490 Now get have to know which files to track or which files should be untracked. 02:52.490 --> 02:59.960 If you decide to track the file with Git, it will monitor the changes being made to that file. 02:59.960 --> 03:06.470 And on the other hand, the changes to an entourage file are ignored by git. 03:06.500 --> 03:14.810 Now checking the status of our repository, we can see that one file is currently marked in red and 03:14.810 --> 03:16.160 it is on direct. 03:16.160 --> 03:25.190 In order to track this file or files, we can run the following command git add file one in case you 03:25.190 --> 03:32.780 want to add the whole directory or the whole repository, you have to run the following command git 03:32.780 --> 03:42.290 add dot or git at dash capital A it will tell it to track the current directory as well as any files 03:42.290 --> 03:45.890 or subdirectories within the current directory. 03:45.920 --> 03:54.300 Be aware of using this command because you can end up adding unnecessary files to your repository. 03:54.320 --> 04:01.550 Now when we set to get that, we want some files to be tracked and we added these files. 04:01.550 --> 04:10.670 We are ready to make a commit, commit to the sort of a snapshot or a state of your repository. 04:10.670 --> 04:13.850 In a particular moment of time. 04:13.850 --> 04:23.450 You can revert to this snapshot whenever you want and get back to the exact version of this file with 04:23.450 --> 04:25.880 all the changes if you need to. 04:25.910 --> 04:28.880 So let's run the following command. 04:28.910 --> 04:30.980 Git commit dash. 04:30.980 --> 04:31.580 Hm. 04:31.580 --> 04:39.920 And the command concerning this commit This dash am option specifies that you are going to add a message 04:39.920 --> 04:45.160 for you to know what changes were made to this commit. 04:45.170 --> 04:50.690 For example, in my case I'll write git commit the same added file. 04:50.690 --> 04:59.210 One Please note that a min and full commit message is an essential part of your commit and it will be 04:59.210 --> 05:05.840 important in the future for you or someone else to know why you created this commit. 05:06.160 --> 05:15.100 Some files will read it or some changes to the project were made after running git commit command. 05:15.130 --> 05:19.900 Please notice the string with letters and digits. 05:19.900 --> 05:24.320 It's the hash of the commit or its identity. 05:24.340 --> 05:31.780 This hash is a unique identifier and signature for each command generated automatically by git. 05:31.780 --> 05:37.570 And you can refer to this particular commit by using this hash. 05:37.600 --> 05:46.510 Next up, we'll take a look at how we could use remote repository and how to copy your files to this 05:46.510 --> 05:56.500 remote repository which will enable you to work in a team or others can access this repository and make 05:56.530 --> 05:57.370 use of it.
