How many more tutorials on Git do we need? It's like article authors find it a "rite of passage" of sorts to explain Content-Addressable Storage, references and all kinds of whacky command-line keys.
- erikb 12y agoThe way you expressed your concern is not very polite, but otherwise I have to agree. There are already thousands of tutorials about Git's fundamentals. It would be great if people like this article's author would spend their (actually quite good) skills into creating something new or improving the existing material instead of redoing work that is already done in all variations.
- boomlinde 12y agoUpvote because I think it's a perfectly valid point, but in my experience a wide range of perspectives on even simple things can be helpful to beginners and professionals alike.
- scotch_drinker 12y ago"We" don't need any Git tutorials. We could read the documentation But perhaps people don't write solely because of the audience's need. Writing a tutorial is the fastest way to ensure you more fully understand the subject. It is in fact a rite of passage in any topic when you can explain it to an audience with less understanding. Tutorials don't just serve the audience.
