 ## Setup
 - Login with your username found on your name badge and set the initial password for your account:  https://git.aspp.school/user/login
 - You'll have to type that password many many times this week: choose wisely!
-- We will use the [exercise](exercise.md) in the repo for the rest of the lecture
-- find a partner to do pair-programming for this lecture by finding someone with the same tarot card as you
-- before starting, make yourself acquainted with the meanining and the power of the tarot cards: carefully read [this booklet](https://aspp.school/wiki/_media/tarot-runic.pdf)

-## A cautionary quote
-
-> My first instinct is to sell all my computers, fake my own death, move to another planet, and reinvent computing from scratch, rather than try to understand Git.
-> 
->    I rarely actually do that, mind you. But the urge is there.

-
-## Creating a repository
-```bash
-git init
-```
-Creates new git repository in current directory.
-
-```bash
-git clone <url> (<path>)
-```
-Clones the repository at the specified url. If no path is specified, the repository will
-be cloned into a directory with the same name as the remote repository.
-
-
-## Branches
-```bash
-git branch
-```
-Lists all branches in the repository.
-
-```bash
-git branch <branch-name>
-```
-Creates a new branch with the given name.
-
-```bash
-git switch <branch-name>
-```
-Switches to the specified branch.
-
-```bash
-git merge <branch-name>
-```
-Merges the specified branch into the current branch.
-
-
-## Making changes
-```bash
-git status
-```
-Shows the status of the repository. This includes the current branch and files that have been modified.
-
-```bash
-git diff (--staged)
-```
-Shows the changes that have been made to the files in the repository. Use `--staged` to see changes that have been added to the staging area.
-
-```bash
-git add <file>
-```
-Adds the specified file to the staging area.
-
-```bash
-git add .
-```
-Adds all files in the current directory to the staging area.
-
-```bash
-git reset (<file>)
-```
-Removes the specified file from the staging area. If no file is specified, all files are removed.
-
-```bash
-git commit (-m "<message>")
-```
-Commits all changes in the staging area to the current branch. If the `-m` flag is omitted, a text editor will open to write a commit message.
-
-```bash
-git commit --amend
-```
-Adds the staged changes to the last commit. This can be used for fixing typos in the commit message.
-
-
-## Undoing changes
-```bash
-git restore <file>
-```
-Restores the specified file to the state of the last commit. This undoes uncommitted changes.
-
-```bash
-git revert <commit>
-```
-Creates a new commit that undoes the changes of the specified commit. Use `git log` to find the hash of the commit.
-
-```bash
-git reset --hard <commit>
-```
-Resets the current branch to the specified commit. DANGER: This will remove all changes after the specified commit. Prefer `git revert`.
-
-
-## Looking at the history
-```bash
-git log (--oneline)
-```
-Shows all past commits on the current branch. Use `--oneline` to show a more compact view.
-
-```bash
-git show <commit>
-```
-Shows the changes of the specified commit. Use `git log` to find the has of the commit.
-
-
-## Remote repositories
-```bash
-git remote add <remote> <url>
-```
-Adds a new remote repository with the specified name (e.g. `origin` or `upstream`) and url. Origin is automatically created when cloning a repository.
-
-```bash
-git push <remote> <branch>
-```
-Pushes the specified branch to the remote repository.
-
-```bash
-git fetch <remote>
-```
-Fetches changes from the remote repository.
-
-```bash
-git pull <remote> <branch>
-```
-Fetches changes from the remote repository and merges them into the current branch.
-
-
-## Typical workflow
-```bash
-# 1. Fork the repository on GitHub / git.aspp.school
-
-# 2. Clone the repository
-git clone <fork-url>
-git remote add upstream <upstream-url>
-
-# 3. Create a new branch
-git branch <topic-branch>
-git switch <topic-branch>
-
-# 4. Make changes to the code
-
-# 5. Add and commit changes
-git add .
-git commit -m "<message>"
-
-# 6. Push changes to your fork
-git push origin <topic-branch>
-
-# 7. Create a pull request on GitHub / git.aspp.school
-
-# 8. Wait for the pull request to be reviewed and merged
-
-# 9. Pull changes from the remote repository
-git switch main
-git pull upstream main
-
-# 10. Delete the topic branch
-git branch -d <topic-branch>
-```
-
-Whenever the remote repository is updated (i.e. when a pull request is merged), you need to pull the changes into your local repository.
-```bash
-git switch main
-git pull upstream main
-
-# If you have an active topic branch, you need to rebase it on top of the updated main branch
-git switch <topic-branch>
-git rebase main
-```
-
-
-## Getting help
-```bash
-git help <command>
-```
-Shows the manual page for the specified command (`add`, `commit`, `push`, etc.).
