RTFM

One of the best parts of using Git is that all the documentation is fantastic, but that wasn't always the case.

Git was known as being the most obtusely documented tool of all time, but fortunately, times have changed.

Assignment

Let's take a look at the official Git manual. Run the following command in your terminal:

git help git

Shortcuts for the manual:

  • q: Quits the manual
  • j: One line down
  • k: One line up
  • d: Half page down
  • u: Half page up
  • /<term>: Search for "term" (e.g. /OPTIONS)
  • n: Next search term
  • N: Previous search term

Search for the term AUTHORS (all caps) and answer the question.
