Well, useful but I could not follow it via the correct order. Around half of the guide, the instructions tell you to add a sample.html. All cool, but the surprise came when you actually have to create it first, inside the local repo directory. Yeah, welcome to the frustration, the newbie got stymied. After a good day searching the most creative key words ever, I asked in the QA community. Namely Stack Overflow, a specialized central to ask anything programming-wise. There are communities about every subject inside Stack Exchange, the mother site of QaAs. Wanna ask something about something? Go there, the first choice. So after a question, some edits, some more searching, I was tinkering inside bash and an error came up. Searching about it, came to answer my own question and solve all my problems with git and that bash. Ending my frustration and the tutorial. Coding is all about experimenting, asking, problem-solving, and using communities. So I have a feeling that today we did all of that. Mission accomplished and some extra, "https://github.com/firstcontributions/first-contributions". This little gem provided us with the umpf we needed, and also supplemented this course lovely. Pulling a repo, accepting an issue and solving it, pushing and getting a pull request, waiting for the acceptance of edits, and thus making the first active contribution ever. I would say at this point that we have completed the basics, with git, and that we now need more specialized knowledge, more on skillset.
