I really liked how well the examples worked. I read on one screen and food the exercises in the other. I also used this to convert from svn to git based on the chapters at the end. It was extremely helpful to decide on a workflow as well.

I'm not new in developing, but this book worse than official guide about git. Sadly i get nothing new information from books, and i can't recommend it even for my students
