Intro to Git and GitHub
Details
Have you been asked to 'fork a repo' and have no idea what that means? Then this class is for you!
Git and GitHub is a great way to develop personal or group projects, without losing track of the “good” version!
Git and GitHub also allow people to share and collaborate with others around the world. They are essential tools for any programmer’s tool belt and can make all the difference when you’re learning to code or working on a team.
This class is for people new to Git and Github, as well as people who need a refresher on the basics (like how to link git and github) and the command line.
In this workshop we will go over the following:
• What is git?
