  <p>I'm new to git, and I did this command: </p>
  
  <pre><code>git commit -m "First Commit!"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This throws an error like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>bash: !": event not found
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why is this error happening? Is is that in Git, I shouldn't use <code>!</code> symbols in <code>commit</code>? </p>
  
  <p>Are there other symbols which I shouldn't use or should escape with any escape sequence?</p>
