But the path is not short and easy. Full Review  >

I’m glad to have this book on my (virtual) shelf, and I learned some things from reading it. I’m sure I’ll go back to it as a reference, but for the most part, my needs are simple enough that it was overkill. For people who are diving in to a large scale project, or want to get a handle on git’s internals, I think it could be very useful. Full Review  >

I have to say this book does an excellent job of going over the basics and then moving into the more advanced topics. I didn't really do much with the advanced stuff as I don't need it but I really like the fact that I am able to quickly look up everything I need with this book. Full Review  >
