Git Terminology

Source Control Management has its own set of terms that you need to understand in order to use git. The following are a list of terms used by SCM and git. Descriptions and explinations of these terms will be provided in future lessons.

  • Repository
  • Branch
  • Pulling
  • Pushing
  • Commits
  • Merging
  • Pull Request

There are also all the git commands to learn. This good thing about learning the git commands is that you only need to learn a couple of commands to get started. The other commands can be learned when they are needed.
