Introduction to Git with Scott Chacon of GitHub - This was really helpful for me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDR433b0HJY

This is the video that I keep recommending to new people who want to know how it works on a technical level. I've always had amazing/euphoric feedback to that recommendation.

Cool. For me it is this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYP56QJpDr4

I notice they are from the same publisher.

Scott Chacon's videos are priceless. (He's the co-author of the git book.) They explain exactly how git works internally in the simplest terms possible. Either or both of these:

The latter is newer but a bit longer.

Don't be fooled by the video names, these are introductions to the internals not just the interface.

And this is my favourite tutorial so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDR433b0HJY I think it explains everything in 80 minutes.

Hearing Scott Chacon explain how git works is pretty good.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDR433b0HJY

A lot of these Git tutorials seem to walk you through a series of commands as if knowing the commands is knowing Git.

I think they should focus on scenarios instead. Short stories like: "Bob's code is working well but he wants to try something that might be completely misguided. He knows better than to mess with his working code....." Then at the end of the story a command is introduced. Also, some kind of indication of what Git is actually doing when you issue that command. When you tell Git to branch, what actually happens to the file system? When you say git status, what is it actually looking at?

And please, don't start a tutorial on Git without introducing the three area paradigm (working, staging/index, commit)

Here's a talk by Scott Chacon of GitHub. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDR433b0HJY

It's over an hour long and very detailed.
