This is a clear introduction to version control and why it matters beyond programming. Git’s flexibility really stands out compared to older systems. Do you think beginners should focus first on understanding the concept of history tracking, or should they jump straight into learning Git commands like add and commit?

I've recently started learning Git for version control, and it wasn't as straightforward as I initially thought. Setting up the environment on Debian 12 had me stuck for a while, especially with dependencies and configurations. I truly appreciate how clear and step-by-step the instructions were - it saved me tons of time and confusion. Highly recommend checking it out if you're looking for solid guidance on Debian setups!

I'm not in Linux, but in FreeBSD (MacOS) which should be the same. However,

git config user.name "Wasley"
fatal: not in a git directory

and if the name is all ASCII, the same result.

$ git merge test

merge: test – not something we can merge.

When I use this command I got the above error.

Can you check your docs once again and all is correct ?
