This course helped me get comfortable working with command line basics, combined with Git/Github. There were few errors in labs or test but nothing that really detracted from the overall quality.

Their were hyperlinks that weren't active and lead to a 404 error. Had to use github help to have forking practice. Other than that the course was very informative and I look forward to practing more.

It's certainly not bad and is a good introduction to version control but that's all it is, an introduction. You still have so much more to learn even after this course, but its an alright foundation.

precise instructions. Although I do feel it could cover some of the more advanced topics related to git such rebase, cherry picking etc. I came across while reading the documentation.

Some of the instructions were not very clear and the videos were really hard to follow because there were too much of new information to take in and we couldn't even think about it.

It is introductory course, but it shouldn't be so easy. Laboratories and quizes can be done within 5 minutes although it says you need 1h. You should make those more difficult

It had a great walkthrough of the software development and version control workflow, although the bash section of the course was not up to par and has room for improvement.

The course was mostly really good however there were a couple of outdated links that made completing the final leg of the course a bit challenging. Really great otherwise!

Great, but ultimately incomplete information; not everything that was taught was explained. The teaching style felt out of order to me; demonstration before instruction.

Not everything is covered. most are present in additional resource section. So please go through from your end more and work more on related topics from your end.

A good, well-paced, and thorough course. The course is beginner friendly and the instructors were great. But not enough hands-on practice in my personal opinion.

Overall, the course was good. However, I felt it could have provided much more detail for those working with Git bash and GitHub for the very first time.

The course was very excellent and easy to understand. The only problem is that some of the links to the assessments and lab practicals are broken.

smaller fillers in videos that are not really useful. Much like a talk of Meta company culture then to like of git but content is really good.

Great overview of Git. I wish that there were more variation and difficulty in the labs, but otherwise this is a good, short, course

The unix command line was quite difficult to understand. The usage of labs and assesment based on lectures is plus here. thank you

I learned a lot, really, but some crucial links were not alive which made the labs impossible to complete, hence the 4 out of 5.

I think unix command would give learners a lot of troubles as some command can't be used on window terminal. Anyway, great job!

It's really efficient, however, it needs continuous update as some commands didn't work and some links to repos are dead,

The course is good, it just needs to upload the class repo because it gives a 404 whenever I wanted to access to it.
