## History
|
||||
In mid-2014 I started [a GitHub Gist](https://gist.github.com/JamesSkemp/15fcf0147cb85bb633bf) with the commands to work with Git (having moved from TFS and Subversion before that). As that Gist grew it became rather unwieldly, so I looked for something better, where I could continue to create Markdown files with the various commands that I found helpful as I learned Git.
|
||||
|
||||
In 2018 GitBook was a great choice, but in 2019 they changed their business model and mdBook was there to seamlessly fill the gap. Thankfully GitLab Pages continues to be a great resource for hosting this material.
|
||||
|
||||
Even if no one else uses it, I regularly find a need to come back to, and expand, this book, as there's just some commands that I need to look up. But I hope I'm not the only one that reads these words and gets some benefit from them.
