Beginning Git not only covers Git basics, but it also gives you a thorough walk-through of two of the most important Git communities, Github and Bitbucket. If you're just getting started with coding or using version control, you'll quickly find that being able to use Git is an extremely valuable skill. Many major software projects, and even some non-software projects use Git for version control, and GitHub is the biggest Git community. Plus Bitbucket now supports Git and even allows import of GitHub repositories. Learning how to use Git in both of these communities is an invaluable skill, and Beginning Git not only covers both, it also introduces the Source Tree client, usable with both GitHub and Bitbucket.
