It is not a typical "pocket guide," a book that contains only enough information to remind you of what you already know. The book is organized well but is too verbose to serve as a quick reference. This book should have been titled "Just enough Git" because it contains a lot of explanations that will help the user understand how Git works and it contains examples that show how to use Git in certain common workflows. Note, this book probably will not serve as an introduction for a person who is completely unfamiliar with Git, and certainly not for someone who is completely unfamiliar with version control. Read some of the online tutorials before you pick up this book. Also note, if you plan to use TortoiseGit this book assumes the user is doing all operations on the command line...which you won't do with TortoiseGit. However, I've found that now that I've read this book I have a much better understanding of how to use TortoiseGit. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This is the book to read to understand not only Git, but a whole new approach to document modeling. *by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2015* After reading another reviewers comment : 'I had concluded git was a psychological experiment designed by insane people as an amusement. ' - I hit Buy immediately. This is definitely the book for me. I concluded early on using git that while I could follow 'cookbook' directions I was missing something fundamental - I simply didn't understand what was going on 'under the hood'.What I learned from this book is amazing - even if ignore the the fact that git is a source control tool - the underlying data model and operations are fascinating and unique - well worth reading even if you never use git in your life. Its so different you need to try to completely forget any preconceptions you have of other source control systems, even document management systems and start with a blank slate.Finally I know that Git *was* designed by insane people - *brilliant* insane people - but not for amusement, but rather pure genius turned into rock solid engineering in ways I could not previously imagine possible. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect introduction (or re-introduction) to git *by T***B on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2014* This is an excellent and fun to read introduction to the git version control system. I'll be recommending it to friends and colleagues whenever they want to learn more about git.What I appreciate most about the book is it begins by diving into a description git internals rather than starting with trivial examples. I had been using git for years but before reading this book I was confounded by git's design, workflow and nomenclature decisions. Having "grown up" with CVS, SVN, P4, etc. I had concluded git was a psychological experiment designed by insane people as an amusement. But within the first few sections of this book much of what hadn't been clear to me before all started to make sense. After reading this book I've moved the authors of git out of the "insane" category and into the "insane genius" category. ## Frequently Bought Together - Git Pocket Guide: A Working Introduction - Learning Git: A Hands-On and Visual Guide to the Basics of Git - Version Control with Git: Powerful Tools and Techniques for Collaborative Software Development --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.mx/products/11812596-git-pocket-guide-a-working-introduction](https://www.desertcart.mx/products/11812596-git-pocket-guide-a-working-introduction) --- *Product available on Desertcart Mexico* *Store origin: MX* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
