Git Workshop

I am a member of Moorpark College’s Computer Science Club, which hosted a Git Workshup this week.

Notes

Github is an online hosting service for software dev and version control using Git.

  • Free, open source
  • collaboration efforts
  • Git is distributed version control system software

Important because:

  • collaboration in companies
  • projectd can be recovered is computer is lost/crashes
  • Github portfolio for job/internship applications

3 Methods:

  • Github browser
  • Desktop Applications (most used and preferred by presenter)
  • Git Bash

Notes

  • Do not use long file names in github, it will throw an error

Repository

  • Project with name and files
  • click New to make a new repository
  • visibility: public/private
