Software Carpentry: Version Control with Git
Software Carpentry: Version Control with Git
Software Carpentry aims to help researchers get their work done in less time and with less pain by teaching them basic research computing skills. This hands-on workshop will cover basic concepts and tools for version control with Git. It can be taken alone, but is designed to be taken in combination with the Unix (5/16) and either Python (5/18) or R (5/19-20) modules.
By the end of the workshop, learners will:
- Create and manage a Git repository
- Track versions and file history with Git
- Resolve issues and conflicts
- Practice collaborative project management in Git and Github
- Identify and resolve errors independently
- Identify options for self-directed and guided learning
The workshop is open to anyone. You do not need any programming experience to participate but you will need access to a Windows, Mac or Linux computer. The workshop will be hosted online using Zoom; instructions for accessing course material and installing software will be sent in advance. For questions, contact Data Education Coordinator Nathaniel Porter (ndporter@vt.edu).
