I just scroll past this question asking how to get good at Git commands (https://devrant.com/rants/9997784/...). Figured I'd share my thoughts as a separate rant cause it's a topic I've tinkered with a bit.

So, My initial engagement with git-related queries on StackOverflow dates back to around 2021.. Surprisingly, one of my short and straight-to-the-point replies got a hand full of attention. You can check it here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/...

Now, about mastering Git commands – from my own trial and error:

1). Instead of trying to cram everything into your big brain, scribble down notes. Trust me, it’s more practical. I kept a cheat sheet of sorts as notes on my PC, noting down the commands I used day in, day out. Super handy beyond just work stuff.

2). You gotta get what each command does, but you don't need to nail it all at once. Spend a day diving into the basic commands. Leave the trickier ones for later; they start making sense as you get more into it.

3). I had this aha moment when dealing with a merge mess using a GUI tool. Switched to the command line, and bam! It made way more sense. The command line's like a secret passage to really understanding Git.

So, if you're wondering how to tackle Git commands, my take is: *notes, *baby steps, and *lean into that command line magic. Mix them up your way and see what sticks for you!
