Beginners Guide to Git and Github
In this video I go over how you can use Git for all your coding and non-coding needs! One of the best ways to level-up your programming is by using Git as it allows you to work with other more easily. This is especially true if you are looking for a job in the tech industry as nearly every company that writes software will have some form of source control system - usually Git.

Git Commands:
`git init -b main` - This creates a local repository where the first main branch is called main
`git status` - shows the current status of the git repository
`git commit` - commits the current state of the added contents under the folder to a commit
`git log` - shows the history of the repository
`git branch jakeiscool` - creates the new branch named jakeiscool
`git branch -a` - lists all of the branches
`git checkout jakeiscool` - switches to use the provided branch
`git checkout b jakeiscool` creates a new branch and checks it out at the same time
`git merge subscribe` - merges one branch to the currently checked out branch
`git remote add origin URL` - adds the origin for a remote repository to link your local repository with - like GitHub 🙂
`git remove -v` - lists the current linking you have for remote settings
SSH Commands:
`ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -C "YOUR_EMAIL"` - creates a private and public ssh-key
`ssh-add PATH_TO_PRIVATE_KEY` - adds the private ssh-key to your ssh-agent
`clip LESS_THAN ~/.ssh/PATH_TO_PUBLIC_KEY.pub` - copies the public key contents to your clipboard (so you can paste it) On a mac you can do `cat ~/.ssh/PATH_TO_PUBLIC_KEY | pbcopy` .
LESS_THAN should be the less than sign - I can't add them in the description :)
