Very apropos, I'm trying to write a guide for my team called "git beyond pull/push and checkout".

I'm trying to write something that will demystify git for the developers in this team. So I want to show them the files in .git, and connect them to the concepts they know like branches, etc. I'm always on the lookout for new stuff to include.

The more I can read, the better information I can put in this guide.

I’d definitely read this if you’re able to share it publicly

I'll probably announce it on HN when it's finished :)

Heh, "git beyond pull/push and checkout" was also the idea behind my tutorial, though I figured visualising the commit graph would be more helpful than showing the hidden files. And also that a ~10 min guide would be more likely to be used than a very detailed book.

Anyway, in case you're interested: https://agripongit.vincenttunru.com
