| Course Description: Version control tools are not restricted to software gurus! Learn the ease of version control and its benefits for your work, study and research.
This session shows setting up Git version control on your computer.. You will learn how to maintain repositories, manage version changes, and retrieve specific version ("commit").
While version control is used extensively in computer programming, this session uses text documents. If dealing with version changes is important for you, perhaps project planning, documentation, food recipes, or CVs, this session might be suitable for you.
Prior to attending this session, participants are encouraged to set up their computers for command line using Linux. Further information on what you need to do will be sent to you about a week before the session. Participants are welcome to observe the hands-on.
The command line interface (in contrast to Graphical User Interface, GUI) will be used to understand key functions of Git.
