The adage "one must learn to walk before they can run" seems particularly fitting in your case. It's clear you're experiencing some challenges in areas such as reading and understanding basic documentation, comprehending syntax, interpreting the source code, or determining the specific git commit you're using.
As you're in the learning stages, it might not be advisable to use pre-release versions of software or aim to customize every possible feature. The reason for this caution is that these advanced steps can introduce additional complexities, making the learning curve steeper. Moreover, you may find limited help online pertaining to these versions and customized settings.
Your enthusiasm to stay ahead and be up-to-date is commendable. However, it's crucial to build a strong foundational understanding first. Trying to race ahead without a robust understanding may not always expedite your learning journey, but rather could potentially impede it. It might be better slowing down a bit, mastering the basics and gradually progressing towards more complex aspects.
