So you’ve read the tutorials, and still can’t manage to figure out this stuff? What is Git – and why do we even need it? If you fall into this category, much like I did at one point, I’ve recorded a video tutorial that hopes to teach you exactly how to get started. Rather than feeling your eyes blur over as you attempt to comprehend code snippets like “git push origin master,” relax, and let me explain it to you as best as I possibly can!

Over the course of ninety minutes or so, he goes over unit testing, as well as some of the changes the jQuery team have made in the upcoming jQuery 1.4. It’s well worth the watch!
