Adds all 6 ROOT 03 modules (why version control exists, the Git mental model, everyday Git, branching & merging, remote repositories, engineering Git workflow) — 31 activities. Uses only real LOCAL Git repositories throughout — no Gitea account, no network access, and no RootNode-canonical-repo credential is ever needed or exposed in a student Lab (docs/ROOT_FOUNDATIONS_LAB_STRATEGY.md §4). Modules 1, 2, and 6 are conceptual bookends with no lab, matching the flexible readiness standard already used in ROOT 01/02. Adds 3 new hands-on Git scenarios plus 2 MCQs: git-everyday-basics (init/add/commit, validated by inspecting real `git log`/`git show` state, not just command output strings — Step 6's explicit requirement), git-branching-and-merge (a REAL merge conflict caused on purpose by two branches editing the same line, resolved by the student, validated by confirming the conflict markers are gone and a real two-parent merge commit exists), and git-remote-clone-push (a real local bare repository standing in for a remote — clone/commit/push validated by inspecting the REMOTE side directly, not just the student's own clone). All tested end-to-end via the real scenario-validation API, including negative tests. Wires rootnode-git-fundamentals-assessment (2 required + 3 random-draw scenarios) using the existing Phase 3B assessment engine. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <[email protected]>

# Reflection: The Model Explains the Commands, Not the Other Way Around
|
|
|
|
## Reflection questions
|
|
|
|
1. Before this module, would `git add` before `git commit` have seemed like an unnecessary
|
|
extra step? Why does it actually matter now?
|
|
2. Which of the three areas (working tree, staging, repository) do you feel least confident
|
|
distinguishing? What would help solidify it?
|
|
|
|
## Real Ops takeaway
|
|
|
|
**Every Git confusion you'll ever hit traces back to one of these three areas.** "Why isn't my
|
|
change in the commit," "why does `git status` show something weird," "why did my commit include
|
|
something I didn't mean to" — all of them are answerable by asking "which of the three areas is
|
|
this change actually in right now?" You now have that question available; Module 3 makes it
|
|
muscle memory.
|
|
|
|
This module is complete. Continue to the next module.

## Instructor Notes
|
|
|
|
**Discussion questions for a live classroom:** question 2 is worth a quick poll — knowing where
|
|
the class is least confident tells you where to slow down in Module 3's hands-on Lab.
|
|
|
|
**Approximate timing:** 5-8 minutes live discussion; 5 minutes self-paced writing.
