It's hard to teach git to a beginner! There's just so many bits of info that you have to know before it clicks into place. Not to mention git's "reuse" of certain commands with files and refs.

When I taught git, some loved history, really, and they were keep asking me "WE CAN GO BACK TO HISTORY AND CHANGE STUFFS?! WOAH"

@CozyPlanes Tell them that local commits are like ideas inside of your mind; you haven't 'pushed' the ideas into reality yet ;)

@cst1992 Awesome but they have bunch of questions

from what is a commit to what is a terminal uhhhh

I now say just to make it though alone

The best way to learn it is using it. Starting with unimportant project for practicing.

My first git tutor barely knew how to use it. Needless to say, I was hopeless.

git is the road that blocks all goals

I imagine someone whom I couldn't see/hear looking over my shoulder going:
No, no, no, don't do that!!!
Ok, now you'll have to find out how reset works.
Did he seriously just decide to pull from different branch?
Well at least he understands not to push stuff without unfucking everything
