Understand the Concepts: You should have a solid understanding of Git's core

concepts, such as repositories, commits, branches, merging, and tagging. You should
also understand how Git works under the hood, including its use of hashes and its
object store.

Use Git Regularly: Regular use is one of the best ways to demonstrate mastery. This
could be through contributing to open source projects, managing your own projects
with Git, or collaborating with others on Git-managed projects.

Contribute to Open Source Projects: This not only gives you practical experience
with Git, but also provides public evidence of your skills. Your contributions will
be visible in your GitHub or GitLab profile.

Write About Git: Writing tutorials, guides, or blog posts about Git can help
demonstrate your understanding. This could be on your own blog, on a platform like
Medium, or as part of Git's official documentation.

Teach Others: If you can teach Git to others, it's a clear sign that you've
mastered it. This could be through workshops, webinars, or mentoring.

Earn Certifications: Some platforms offer Git certifications that can help prove
your skills. For example, BitDegree offers a free Git course with a certificate of
completion.

Share Your Git Workflow: Show how you use Git in your daily work. This could be
through screenshots, videos, or descriptions of your workflow.

Create and Manage Complex Projects: If you can handle large, complex projects with
multiple branches, merges, and contributors, it's a good sign that you've mastered
Git.

Handle Git Issues: Show that you can handle common Git issues, like merge
conflicts, lost commits, and broken branches.

GitHub Profile: Your GitHub profile can serve as a portfolio of your Git skills. It
shows your contributions, projects, and activity.
