Git in Production: A Practical Guide for Developers

Most Git problems come from not knowing what a command will do before you run it. This series starts with how Git works underneath, covering the working tree, the staging area, commits and branches, and then builds up to the situations developers face on real teams. You'll learn how to branch and merge cleanly, rewrite history safely with rebase, undo mistakes and recover lost work, choose a team branching strategy, track down bugs with bisect, automate checks with hooks and CI/CD, and remove leaked secrets or large files from a repository. Every part uses commands you can run in a scratch repository and explains why they work, so you can fix problems yourself instead of copying commands you don't understand.

1. 1. Git Staging Area Explained: How Git Really Works
2. 2. Git Commit Best Practices: add -p, Messages & .gitignore
3. 3. Git Merge Conflicts: Branching, Merging & How to Resolve
4. 4. Git Rebase Explained: Rewrite History Without Breaking It

2. 2. Laravel Route Model Binding: Implicit, Explicit & Scoped
3. 3. Laravel Middleware: Route-Level, Groups & Ordering Pitfalls
