Why take this course?

Every developer must learn version control. If you wish to get a job in the games industry or software industry, you WILL learn these skills. If you already know them, you're MUCH more likely to get hired.

Learn the fundamental operations in the Git version control system. We will start out with the most basic operations, running Git commands from the command line. We begin version controlling basic text files to see how Git works, before moving on to real projects. We create C++ projects in Visual Studio and VS Code, before moving on to Unreal Engine C++ projects using both Unreal Engine 4 and 5!

Learn how to stage changes, commit, branch, merge, and resolve merge conflicts, rebase, cherry pick, stash, and more. Create online remote repositories hosted by GitHub, and fetch and pull from the remotes to your local machine, push from your local repository to the remote, and clone and fork operations. Learn how to submit and approve pull requests, allowing you to contribute to other developer's online projects version controlled by Git.

Learn how to set up Unreal Engine 4 and 5 projects with version control, allowing you to make experimental branches, commit your changes and revert, reset and rebase, and push all your changes to an online repository. Version control large files in your Unreal Engine projects by initializing Git LFS (Large File Storage) and learn how to create proper .gitignore and .gitattributes files so your projects are version controlled smoothly.

Get an edge over your competitors for jobs in the industry. Enroll today!

Mr Ulibarri has structured the course in a manner that is easy to understand and follow along. I recommend this great course for beginners in programming who want to understand and learn how to use Git and Github.

My only criticism was there wasn’t much review of using UE commits and diffs without using vs or gitbash. Otherwise I thought the course was excellent!

This is fantastic! I wish I did this course before I started Stephen's other course. I thought I was using git, until now. Thank you, Stephen!

Another great course by Stephen! He just seems to have a way of taking a somewhat intimidating topic and bring it down to an easy level of understanding. I went into this course with bare minimum knowledge of git and have now version controlled a couple of my current projects, definitely would recommend!

Stephen, you are the best instructor on Udemy and beyond. I really can't thank you enough for this course. I'm so glad I decided to check your Udemy page after seeing toon tanks (it was that great). It's a crime that this course isn't more popular since git can be challenging.

This course really helped me to solidify my understanding of Git. Although I was successfully using Git for years, I reached confidence in my usage and understanding of inner working only after working through this course.

Excellent course, excellent explanations I can't say much that other people hasn't said or pointed out already. The only thing that I would have liked would be more things with specifically Unreal engine! Maybe an little short presentation of other solutions for Unreal Engine Source Control like Perforce and their strength/weakness vs Git. Also maybe a video on how to tackle the famous problem of multiple developpers working on one file problem that Perforce solves, but not Git. Other then that and all of that are really little things, but as always excellent work Stephen! I'll move to the UE5 C++ Course now! See you there!

This is the course that finally gave me a deep understanding of Git (+ its relationship with GitHub and the desktop app) as well as now being comfortable using it from the command line. Even if I might not use the actual Git Bash that much in the future, I feel like learning all the foundations in the Git Bash really does help with intuitive understanding of what's going on in GitHub/Desktop or the Git plugins in VSCode, etc., that I'd been lacking before. Also, having a section dedicated to setting up and using Git inside other software such as Unreal and Visual Studio was a huge plus and part of why I chose this course over some others.

This course starts off excellently. I learned so much about basic git. But it specifically says "Ultimate Git" and this falls short. It really should just say "Intro to Git" or something. For instance, the Pull Requests section barely discusses it other than doing a really simple readme edit and using the web GUI interface. But how about doing pull requests from the command line? Forking vs cloning? What about using git in places other than Github like Gitlab. The UE5 section barely discusses the whole LFS thing.

I've had cause to use Git on and off over the years but it was mostly a case of googling just enough to get by. I thought it was time to develop a better grasp of how it operates, and having been impressed by Stephen's other courses this one seemed ideal. It is absolutely up to the same high standard, and I feel a lot more confident using Git to improve my development workflow.
