Agree that diagrams would help clarify some points. I was a bit short on time for this so I thought that only using git outputs could be enough; I will try to spend some time to incorporate some illustrations!
- vitd 12y agoIf you do, I highly recommend avoiding the types of graphs that git draws for you and that some tools show. (The ones that show the branching history.) As a beginner, I found the graphs way more confusing than what was actually happening, as it didn't communicate anything I could understand. In fact, it made it look like something else was happening than what actually was.
- mrchlblng 12y agoInteresting. Do you think that confusion comes from the fact that commit history (to not say 'time') is represented vertically (and sometime going upward and sometime downward)?
