  If you're more about learning by trying things out, I enjoyed these two: https://learngitbranching.js.org/ https://learngitbranching.js.org/ (which presents a visualisation of the commit history) https://github.com/Gazler/githug https://github.com/Gazler/githug (nice for small exercises; although you kinda have to pay attention and not just 'game' your way through it).

  Use command line. Try creating playground repo and play with it. You can use github's private repos. Use separate accounts to emulate merge conflicts. Start with only those options you feel need: such as tags and so. Read about work models (git flow, and others). Try them in your playground repo. Basically it's impossible to learn something without trying and making mistakes, and analysing what went wrong. No failing - no success. You will get it, not that hard. Good luck!

  https://github.com/FredrikNoren/ungit https://github.com/FredrikNoren/ungit is one of my favorite Git tools. IMHO it is the perfect compliment to the command-line interface since it provides a nice visual model of your commit graph and branches. The graph is interactive so you can use the GUI for things like merging, rebasing, cherry-picking, etc (very nice for visualizing those changes). But at the same time, the Ungit interface mostly just stays out of your way unless you need it. It does not try to force you into a certain workflow or usage pattern.
