| Course Description: Version control tools are not restricted to software gurus! Such tools have been used for project planning, documentation, event planning, assignment etc. While the session focuses on use of such tools for software version control, the techniques can be used for such other purposes. This "in a nutshell" training is an introduction to setting up version control using Git. The command line interface (in contrast to Graphical User Interface, GUI) will be used to understand key functions of Git. You are welcome to follow along in this "hands on" workshop. Where time allows, the use of github.com will be demonstrated. This is best done in groups of 2 or 3 to learn version control management in a collaborative environment. Prior to attending this session, participants are required to set up their computers for command line using Linux. Further information on what you need to do will be sent to you when you register. Having done this course, participants should continue further training, we recommend Software Carpentries Workshop which UCL runs several times a year, please see information here.
