Confused about Git? You’re not alone — but after this video, you’ll have a clear understanding of merging, rebasing, fast-forwarding, and when to use each. We’ll walk through a real-world example using FastAPI, so you’ll see how these concepts play out in actual projects. I’ll use GitKraken to visualize each step, explain the pros and cons of different strategies, and even touch on GitFlow vs. trunk-based development.
