What is in each issue?

Three things, every week: one advanced technique (a Git or GitHub capability most people have not used), one practical workflow (a sequence worth adopting, with the commands), and one security lesson (a failure mode and the setting or habit that prevents it). Each links to the full lesson or lab. Nothing else — no roundups, no sponsor slots.

Does subscribing unlock anything?

No. Every lesson, lab, tool and download on the site is free without it, and always will be. The email is a way to receive the material in a sequence rather than search for it.

Where does my address go?

Directly from your browser to the email service that sends the issues; this site never stores it. The provider is named in the form and on the privacy page. Every issue has an unsubscribe link.

How is this different from the RSS feed?

The feed lists every new lesson as it is published. The email is three chosen items a week with a sentence each on why they matter — curation rather than a changelog.

Modern Git Weekly

Three hundred lessons is too many to read in order and too many to search when you do not yet know the name of the thing you need. The weekly email picks three: one technique you probably have not used, one workflow worth adopting, one security lesson worth an hour before it costs a day.

Modern Git Weekly

One advanced Git/GitHub technique, one practical workflow, and one security lesson every week.

What a week looks like

Technique — something like git worktree for handling an interruption without stashing, or git rerere for never resolving the same conflict twice. The lesson, the commands, and when it is the wrong tool.

Workflow — a sequence: how to plan a Terraform change on the pull request so the reviewer sees the destroy before it happens; how to structure a Docker build so the test stage actually runs.

Security — a failure mode and its fix: pull_request_target checking out the fork’s code; a long-lived cloud key that works from anywhere until rotated; a catch-all CODEOWNERS line that silently disables every rule above it.

Each item is a paragraph and a link. The email is short on purpose.
