> It's unfortunate that a lot of programming courses add it in as a "here's a five-minute intro to git" sort of thing. As you have experienced, that really doesn't work.
That is indeed true. Only memorizing the git commands can get you going, but is often not enough. Eventually you'll mess something up and end up throwing more commands at it until you either fix it or give up and reclone the repo.
There are likely other sources available, but what helped me get a good understanding of how git works was Paolo Perotta's "How git works" Pluralsight course.
