I am really excited you asked! This puts you firmly on the road to
being the person who can help unstick all your friends when they get

same territory but has a nice video to go through it, in case it's
easier for you to learn that way instead of reading slides.

If you have additional questions about the technical design of Git
following one or both of those presentations above, I think you could
get far starting with Git's own design documentation:
