This document provides an overview of Git, including what it is, its basic concepts and commands. Some key points: - Git is a content tracking system and almost a versioned file system. It is distributed and allows for branching. - The basic Git objects are commits, trees, blobs and tags. Commits point to trees, trees point to blobs which contain file content. - Common commands include git add, git commit, git branch, git checkout, git merge, git push and git pull. - Git is very fast, allows for cheap and easy branching, and merging is fast and painless in Git.
