Learn how to integrate version control (git specifically) into your Unity projects so you can quickly rollback changes, recover your last working copy in the event of hard disk failure or accidental file deletion.

I've seen so many sad posts about people losing days, weeks, or even YEARS worth of projects and work because they only have their local copy of their project 😭.
In this video you'll learn how to back up your project where, in 99% of all possible cases, will not lose your work. We'll walk through how to integrate git into your current project, and back it up on Azure DevOps (which is super powerful, robust, and totally free for teams up to 5 members!)

In the 7 years I've been doing Unity development I haven't lost any projects (and even longer for non-unity-projects!) because I've been following the exact process I outline in this video. Please. Stop losing your work. Use version control. 😢
