Learn git with LLMs

Use your local LLM client to learn git interactively with the help of this course.

How it works

• This repository contains an MCP server that instructs your LLM client teach you git. It contains course materials and instructions.
• It also keeps track of your progress, so you can continue where you left off.
• To use, add the MCP server to your local LLM client and say start git course to begin the course. You can restart the course at any time by saying restart git course.
• The MCP server keeps track of your progress, you can ask it to resume the git course and it will resume the course.
• Sometimes LLMs get confused you can jump to any lesson b

How to use

• Set up your local LLM client.
• Install and add mcp-git-course as an MCP server to your client.
• Ask your LLM client to "start the git course".

Requirements

A local LLM client that supports MCP servers, such as Zed, Claude code, VS Code, or Gemini.

Installation

pipx

install via pipx:

pipx install git+https://github.com/gdkrmr/git-mcp-course.git

This will install the mcp-git-course command, which is the MCP server that serves the course materials.

update the package:

pipx upgrade git+https://github.com/gdkrmr/git-mcp-course.git

uvx

use directly via uvx, uvx takes care of installation on the fly. Configure as

{
  "git_course": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "--from",
      "git+https://github.com/gdkrmr/mcp-git-course@master",
      "mcp-git-course"
    ]
  }
}

note that the exact configuration may be slightly different, depending on your client.

Configure for your client

Zed

{
  ...,
  "context_servers": {
    "git_course": {
      "source": "custom",
      "enabled": true,
      "command": "mcp-git-course",
      "args": [],
      "env": {}
    },
    ...
  },

		"git-course": {
			"type": "stdio",
