Tutorial on GIT with Xcode

I'm trying to understand how to use GIT with Xcode 4.2.

I haven't been using GIT actively, but while I was walking through a couple of git operations mentioned in this link it appears that I have a single repository with many projects in it and a recent project in a repository all by itself.

I want to carefully take the project I am currently working on and put it into its own repository so I can safely leverage some of the branching capabilities.

I'm hesitant to begin until I have a better understanding of what's going on. I'd like to know how much is handled within Xcode and what I have to do at the command line.

If you want to learn and understand Git and its concepts in detail then this book would be best for you here is the link.

Or you can have a drill on it practically if you follow this tutorial.

I hope you will get help.

@manojids comment to learn a source control system (like git) outside of a specific editors integration is a good point. Try to understand the source control system. The integration is a convenience, not a crutch.

Outside of that advice, apple has some docs outlining specifics of how XCode works with git. Here's the link:

http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/ToolsLanguages/Conceptual/Xcode4UserGuide/SCM/SCM.html

A good online resource is the pro git book available here:
