gitsetgo

readme

GitSetGo is a mobile game that teaches you real Git — not by reading docs, but by clearing 30 hands-on levels against a simulated repo, mentored (and occasionally roasted) by Mr. Torvalds.

how it works ~ loop ~

①

a scenario

each level sets a real-world situation — a fire in production, a meme in the repo, a lost commit.

②

the command

you type the exact real git command. no multiple choice — the same thing you'd run at work.

③

the verdict

Torvalds reacts, XP drops, and the concept sticks because you did it, not read it.

taste it here ~ commands only ~

this is a command preview — the actual game runs in your nearest terminal. run ssh terminal.gitsetgo.app -p 1337 for the full experience.

the terminal experience ~ ssh ~

Because a game about Git ought to live in a terminal, GitSetGo also answers over SSH:

$ ssh terminal.gitsetgo.app -p 1337

A real text UI opens right in your terminal — browse the floors, read about certification, and scan a QR to install the app. No account, nothing to install first. Try ssh -t terminal.gitsetgo.app -p 1337 cert to jump straight to the certificate screen.
