GIT is a DevOps tool used for source code management. It is a free and open-source version control system used to handle small to very large projects efficiently. GIT is used to tracking changes in the source code, enabling multiple developers to work together on non-linear development.
GIT allows distributed, serverless, version control management of software and document management. This workshop-based course provides hands on exposure to GIT on the command line, through GUIs and onto servers such as GITHub. You will learn how GIT works, explore strategies to work with it effectively.
The course is delivered as a mixture of discussions, demos and hands on exercises. Practical sessions follow the main topics, designed to reinforce the points covered. Additional information is provided in appendices to extend the learning experience after the course has been completed.

  • Learners should be comfortable with the concepts of software development, file systems and the command line. No specific programming skills are required.
  • Learners will need an email address they are willing to use as part of this course to build and work with GIT and GITHub.
