# My Git Handbook

English | [中文](README_zh.md)

A practical Git/GitHub handbook for modern engineering teams and AI-native development workflows.

## Why Maintain This Repository

This repository started as a collection of Git learning materials and has helped many Chinese developers get started with Git.

Today, a link collection is no longer enough. The core challenges of Git have expanded from "how to use commands" to more practical questions:

1.  How individual developers understand Git's mental model.
2.  How to handle conflicts, rollbacks, and accidental commits in daily development.
3.  How teams choose the right branch and PR workflows.
4.  How engineering leads establish collaboration standards using GitHub.
5.  How to review, split, verify, and revert AI-generated code changes in AI-native development workflows.

Therefore, v2.0 upgrades this repository into:

> A practical Git/GitHub handbook for modern engineering teams and AI-native development workflows.

## Who Is This For?

- **Git beginners** looking to build the right mental model.
- **Practicing developers** who frequently need to handle conflicts, rollbacks, and accidental commits.
- **Senior developers** focused on PRs, Review, CI, and release collaboration.
- **Technical leads** who need to design team Git workflows and GitHub governance standards.
- **AI coding users** who need to control the risks of code changes brought by tools like Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and Cline.
