Git Made Simple - Godot Workflow from Start to Finish
Learn Git for game development in Godot with a real workflow, from start to finish.
In this video, I walk through a practical Git workflow I use when building games in the Godot Engine,
based on real-world software engineering experience. We create a new project, connect it to GitHub, and step through a complete feature workflow while building out a simple game structure.
You'll learn how to use Git commands like add, commit, push, pull, branching, and pull requests in a way that actually makes sense.
If Git has ever felt confusing, this will help it finally click.
