"Using Git on the terminal using the command line is, by far, the preferred way to interact with repos. Why? Transparency: You see exactly what's happening. Speed: Fewer clicks, no mouse gymnastics. Scriptability: Automate repetitive tasks. Portability: Works the same across macOS, Linux, and Windows. Less mess ups: If we're honest, this is actually the main reason -so many people have had bad IDE/Git GUI experiences that many prefer the CLI"
"VSCode is great - but sometimes it obscures what's happening, does things you don't expect, and leads you to sloppy choices. It really pays to know how to do it right. Scenario In this hands-on portion, you're going to create a repo, clone it, make changes locally, and move those changes to the remote. Step 0: Prerequisities You need three prerequisites to do this hands-on tutorial: Step 1: Stay organized Somewhere on your computer, create a github.com directory to organize your GitHub repositories."
Use the Git command line for clear visibility into repository operations, faster workflows with fewer clicks, automation of repetitive tasks, consistent behavior across macOS, Linux, and Windows, and reduced mistakes compared to GUIs. Create a github.com directory and a subdirectory for each GitHub user to keep repositories organized. Clone personal repositories and forks into the appropriate subdirectories, and create subdirectories for other users or organizations whose repos are cloned. Create a new repository on GitHub by clicking New repository, naming it, and optionally adding a README, license, and .gitignore. Clone the newly created repository to work locally.
