Git Walkthrough

This guide provides a walkthrough of a basic git workflow and attempts to describe what is happening under the hood as commands are run.

1. We can create a new git repository using git init which creates a hidden directory called .git/

• The init process fills .git/ with a special file called HEAD that contains the name of the branch or the commit we're on
• If the contents of the HEAD file is the name of a branch, then we can look in .git/refs/heads/<branchname> e.g. .git/refs/heads/main to figure out the specific commit the branch is on: e.g. ba012fe642b796af4e5735a7e6c83e4e90f9e62b
• When we first start out, HEAD is likely the main branch which maps to a nil (non-existant) commit

2. We can stage files to be committed to a checkpoint by using the command: git add and then commit them using git commit -"message".
