Implementing Version Control Using Git on a Linux System (XK0-006)
This lab aligns to CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-006) exam objective 4.4: Given a scenario, implement version control using Git.
By the end of this lab, you will be able to:
- Initialize and manage a local Git repository to track and review file changes.
- Use Git branches and merges to support parallel development workflows.
- Synchronize local and remote repositories to enable collaborative version control.
- Safely manage work in progress, recover from errors, and mark stable release points using Git change-management features.
Overview
Welcome to the Implementing Version Control using Git on a Linux System lab. In this lab, you will apply the core Git workflows used to manage local and remote repositories on an AlmaLinux system. You will initialize repositories, track and commit file changes, create and merge branches, synchronize with remote repositories, and use Git's safety features to manage work in progress and tag stable releases. By the end of this lab, you will be able to apply Git-based version control in both individual and collaborative Linux administration scenarios.
You will complete the following 4 activities in this lab:
- Exercise 1 – Implement local version control and change tracking using Git.
- Exercise 2 – Manage parallel development using Git branches and merges.
- Exercise 3 – Synchronize local and remote repositories in a collaborative environment.
- Exercise 4 – Apply safe recovery and release techniques using Git.
