Introduction to Git

Workshop

You have heard of GitHub or GitLab, but you are not sure whether such Git-based systems are suitable for you.

Version Control Systems facilitate effective collaboration between people. Although these tools are mostly used in the field of Software Engineering, they are not limited to this use case. Version Control Systems like Git can be used for collaboration on text documents (training material, documentation, etc.) and keeping track of any changes.

This workshop aims to guide participants through the setup of Git and explain the basic terms and concepts. It will enable participants to create a Git repository and contribute to an existing one.

You will learn how to…

  • configure an SSH-Key for your GitLab Account
  • create new Git repositories
  • commit changes to a Git repository
  • explore the history of your Git repository
  • synchronise a local repository with a remote repository by using the push and pull commands.

Note: To learn more about Git, we recommend the course Mastering Git, opens an external URL in a new window in the afternoon.
