Básico
O livro é um guia para iniciantes que nunca tiveram contato com a ferramenta Git, caso você já tenha tido contato com a ferramenta e a usa pra trabalho, este livro não é para você. Comprei achando que ia se aprofundar um pouco mais nós assuntos mas acabei me enganando, porém não achei ruim pois dei uma revisada noa fundamentos, principalmente o capítulo sobre rebase que me chamou mais atenção.
