If you want to use <i>Git</i> on the shell you need to know how this command works (usually it is preinstalled on Mac and Linux).<br>
The <i>git</i> command providesa set of high-level operations and full access to internals.
Here is the basic syntax but sometimes you will may have some more complicated:
</p>
<pre>
git [flags] [path]
</pre>
First of all, you need to know if you have the right version of git with:
<pre>
git --version
</pre>
Now that we know that we have the right version, we can move to the common <code>git</code> flags used.
I will divide commands in different type of operation.<br>
