Though it has been almost half a year since the first time I “gitted” (and I love it!), all git commands I’ve ever used are clone, add, commit, pull and push. But when I created my first GitHub page, I had to start dealing with branches. It’s like a rewarding “stepping out of the comfort zone” experience. I very much enjoyed this brief exploration, and would like to write down what I learned about branching in the process.

I have longed to start blogging for quite a while, but I never had a drive strong enough to make it real. Recently I read what Jeff Atwood and Steve Yegge said about blogging, where I realized tons of good reasons to start off, and start right now.
