=== Intro to Git & possibly beyond ===
'''Half Day [Whenever]'''
 
* Erin Fahy, Stanford University, efahy@stanford.edu

We can start with the basics of Git and discuss ways in which it can help you version control just about any file, not just code. Points we can go over:
 
* What is a Distributed Version Control System?
* What's the difference between Git and Github.com?
* How to initialize new Git projects locally and on a remote server/Github
* Cloning/Forking existing projects and keeping up to date
* The wonderful world of Git branches
* Interactive rebasing
* Contributing code to existing projects & what pull requests are
* How to handle merge conflicts
* Overview of workflows and branch best practices
* (time allowing) Advanced git: pre/post hooks, submodules, anything else?
