Git Push Without Pull: The Leading Cause of Developer Existential Crises

Git Bash is a command-line interface that enables users to run Git commands on their local machine, allowing for seamless interaction with GitHub. To begin, users must configure their username and email using the commands `git --config global user.name "yourname"` and `git --config global user.email "your email"`. This information is crucial as it links commits to the user's account. Users can either clone an existing GitHub repository using `git clone <repository-url>` or create a local repository using `git init` and connect it to GitHub with `git remote add origin <repository-url>`. To work effectively, users must learn to check the project status with `git status`, pull changes with `git pull origin main`, and push commits with `git push -u origin <branch-name>`. Understanding the correct push-pull order is vital to prevent errors and conflicts, making Git Bash a predictable tool for developers to manage their code on GitHub.
