A workshop offered in collaboration with the Graduate center of Bonn University.

In this workshop, we will look at the steps beyond “git add” and “git commit” and look at some of the less frequently used (but still important!) git commands to help you resolve common issues that arise in git controlled projects.

We will cover the following Topics (selection):

  • Branching and Remotes (branch, switch, remote)
  • Undoing Changes (revert, reset)
  • Merging & Resolving Merge Conflicts
  • Tagging (tag)
  • Branching Models and Workflows
  • Cherry Picking (cherry-pick)
  • Rebasing (rebase, interactive rebase)

Workshop material is available online and will be presented by official Carpentries instructors, who will guide you through the concepts with the help of hands-on exercises and personalized support. The course is designed for those with a basic familiarity with git and the git workflow and is open to participants from all domains.

To participate in the course please bring your own laptop.
