The problem: Applying patches was painfully slow. 🐢 The solution: Build a tool so good at merging you barely need patches. 🤝 The result: Git. 🏆 Hear more stories from Linus Torvalds in our interview for Git’s 20th anniversary. ⬇️

THE GUY WHO BUILT GIT GAVE A FULL LECTURE AT GOOGLE BECAUSE 99% OF DEVELOPERS USE IT WRONG 70 minutes of pure firepower from Linus Torvalds himself - the man who wrote both Linux and Git from scratch. -> The moment you watch it, you realize why "I'll just figure out merge conflicts on the job" is the dumbest sentence in modern software engineering. He spends the first 10 minutes calling out every other version control system in existence and he's not joking. He literally tells Google engineers using Perforce to find a new tool. Git isn't a "nice-to-have" anymore -> it's the operating system of every codebase you'll ever touch. If the man who built it had to explain it to a room full of Google engineers, you don't get a pass either. Don't forget to bookmark & watch it today.

You don't need to memorize a dozen Git commands on day one. Start with the visual tools in VS Code, learn what commits and branches actually do, and build from there. That's exactly what we're covering in our latest GitHub for Beginners episode.

Git Merge vs. Rebase vs. Squash Commit What are the differences and when should you use each? As I explain in more detail in the video, there are some key distinctions. Git Merge This creates a new commit in the target branch. The new commit ties the histories of both main and feature branches together. Git merge is non-destructive - it introduces a new commit without altering existing ones. Git Rebase Rebase transplants commits to the tip of another branch. It creates new commits for each one moved over. The benefit is linear history. But be cautious with shared branches to avoid confusing collaborators. Squash Commit Squashing condenses multiple commits into one, streamlining the commit history. Watch the video to see when to use merge vs rebase vs squash when incorporating changes between main and feature branches. – Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get a Free System Design PDF (158 pages):

MIT DEDICATED A FULL LECTURE TO GIT'S INTERNALS -- BECAUSE THEY FOUND MOST DEVS MEMORIZE THE COMMANDS AND HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE TOOL ACTUALLY DOES A whole 85 minutes MIT session that refuses to teach git as a list of commands to copy, and instead shows you the data model underneath -- the thing that makes every command finally make sense. -> The moment it clicks, git stops being scary magic. You stop memorizing "The incantation that fixed it last time" and start actually knowing what's happening. Most people learn just enough git to not get fired. Four commands, blind faith, and a prayer before every merge. In 2026 that's not enough anymore -> git is the literacy test for being in the room, and "I'll just reclone it" is the fastest way to look junior. An AI agent will branch, commit and rebase faster than you can read. When it tangles the history, untangling it runs on understanding the model MIT teaches in this one hour. Anyone can run git push. The person who understands the graph underneath is the one who saves the repo when it breaks. Bookmark & Watch it ↓

MICROSOFT PUT THE ENTIRE SOURCE CODE OF WINDOWS INTO A SINGLE GIT REPO -- 300 GIGABYTES, 3.5 MILLION FILES AND MADE IT CLONE IN SECONDS 31 minutes from the Microsoft engineer who actually did it, bending the tool you use for a 50-file side project to hold the biggest codebase on the planet. -> The moment it lands, every excuse dies. You've heard "Git doesn't scale, use something else" your whole career. They ran git status on the largest repo alive and it came back instantly. The secret wasn't a different tool. It was understanding what git actually stores and realizing you never need the whole thing on disk. Pull only the files you touch. Ignore the 3.4 million you never will. Knowing the commands was never the ceiling -> understanding how git stores and moves things is what lets you do what everyone swears is impossible. And as AI agents spin up repos that balloon overnight, knowing how git scales is what keeps you from drowning in your own history. Everyone treats git like it maxes out at a hobby project. One team quietly proved it can hold an operating system. Bookmark & Watch it today ↓

A DEVELOPER PROVED YOU CAN FIND THE EXACT COMMIT THAT BROKE YOUR CODE IN A HISTORY OF 10,000 -- IN ABOUT 13 STEPS, AUTOMATICALLY.. 33 minutes from a Google engineer on git bisect: the built-in command that binary-searches your entire history to hunt down the one commit that introduced a bug. -> The moment it lands, "When did this break?" stops being an afternoon of guessing. You hand git a good commit, a bad one, and a test and it finds the culprit while you watch. Most people debug a regression by reading diffs by hand, blaming the obvious file, and hoping. Bisect doesn't hope. It cuts the search in half, then in half again, until only the guilty commit is left standing. Reading history by hand was never the skill -> letting git do the binary search for you is. And when an AI agent dumps hundreds of commits into your repo and one quietly breaks production, bisect is what finds the needle without you reading a single line. The bug isn't hiding. It's sitting in one exact commit. Most people just never learned to make git point at it. Bookmark & Watch it today ↓
