+ [8 years ago] Mattiaslndstrm Do anyone have any amazing resource to actually understand git and github. I’ve memorized most common commands, but it makes it kind of messy not understanding the underlying mechanism. I’ve read a bit in https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 but I’m not sure it’s the best resource.
+ [8 years ago] Seveas I found that "getting myself into git trouble and trying to recover" works well for increasing the understanding :)
+ [8 years ago] Mattiaslndstrm Haha, maybe. But then I usually end up trying everything and eventually something works, but I have no idea why.

If you don't have any local changes, just clone the repository again and start again
