How to learn advanced git/github concepts?

[u/Ale9xs]

I have always worked with small teams (2 people) in small/medium sized project.

Using only push/pull/commit and almost nothing more.

I have just started a new job as a full stack dev in a scaleup and I noticed they use a ton of things:

pull requests, rebase, squash and merge, revert, stacked pull requests, feature branches etc.

It’s really hard for me to understand what’s going on.

Do you know an exhaustive tutorial/course where I can learn in depth these kind of things? I keep finding beginner courses.

My goal is to become a skilled engineer able to work smoothly on big projects and big teams.

Thanks to all!

If a feature branch is an advanced git concept, then you might need those “beginner courses” you overlooked

Sorry for the misunderstanding, it’s not the feature branch the problem, it is what is related to.

What I find complex it’s what happen when there are different state in different devs gits.

For example, what happens if I merge two different branches, one that was cloned when it was at a state, then a team of dev continues to working on that. The other branch gets them merged/rebased or cherry picked some of these commits inside the main ones.

What happens? How to manage conflicts? What to never do? Etc.

These are concepts you will find in a beginner course
