основное руководство Git для разработчиков (A Git core tutorial for developers)
Описание (Description)
This tutorial explains how to use the "core" Git commands to set
up and work with a Git repository.
If you just need to use Git as a revision control system you may
prefer to start with "A Tutorial Introduction to Git" (‐
gittutorial(7)) or the Git User Manual
[1].
However, an understanding of these low-level tools can be helpful
if you want to understand Git's internals.
The core Git is often called "plumbing", with the prettier user
interfaces on top of it called "porcelain". You may not want to
use the plumbing directly very often, but it can be good to know
what the plumbing does when the porcelain isn't flushing.
Back when this document was originally written, many porcelain
commands were shell scripts. For simplicity, it still uses them
as examples to illustrate how plumbing is fit together to form
the porcelain commands. The source tree includes some of these
scripts in contrib/examples/ for reference. Although these are
not implemented as shell scripts anymore, the description of what
the plumbing layer commands do is still valid.
Note
Deeper technical details are often marked as Notes, which you
can skip on your first reading.
