Using Java with Git

Hi there,

Quick question, sorry if it sounds obvious :)

I want to study what I've learned in Java so far so I've transferred the Projects I've done in Workspaces, Hangman and Java over to java files in my system. No workspaces, no IDE.

I want to set up Git local repositories on them so I can save commits for various stages of the process as I'm building.

So, I can do that but it got me wondering how it works with compilers since you can't worth with Java or an IDE? Thanks :)

Once you get going with an IDE (IntelliJIDEA), you'll be able to load those projects into it and then set up version control (GIT) from right within (and through) the IDE. I've done it for a few of the Java courses here, and it's fairly easy process.
