I didn't understand how git really worked, and I was curious. Since I also have to work with git every day, it seemed sensible to learn a bit more about how it works. I'm not a particularly advanced git user; I mostly stick to the basic commands 'checkout', 'merge', 'pull' and 'push', and occasionally 'rebase'.
I bought [How Git Works](https://store.wizardzines.com/products/how-git-works) from Julia Evans. This is a great introduction to how git works; it's very accessible to me and I like Julia's writing style.
I prefer to explore and experience, rather than simply read about a subject, so I was happy to find [Write Yourself A Git](https://wyag.thb.lt/). I've been [working through it in zig](https://code.mfashby.net/wyag/files.html).
