From Zero to Pull Request with Git on Windows

,

I wrote a guide about using Git and GitHub for "Windows people".

This is the guide I wish was available when I got started with Git last year.

The guide takes you through everything you need to know to get started with Git and GitHub, and only requires a Windows PC where you have admin rights to complete.  You can probably get through the whole thing in an evening or two.

This guide is unique because:

  • It is specifically for developers who use Windows
  • It only describes how to contribute to an existing project
  • It prioritizes the GitHub for Windows UI when the command-line is not required
  • It is not embarrassed to give step-by-step directions or definitions of basic terms
  • It prioritizes "the simple way for the common circumstance" over "every possible way for every possible circumstance"

Check out the guide here:
