Advanced Git

Workshop Dortmund (TU Dortmund)
Workshop Git GitLab Carpentries By DKZ.2R
Registration Closed

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.

Documentation From User Experience

This post is a condensed version of a talk at our Data Compentcy College

If you regularly use scientific software written by others, or tried to replicate interesting research that relies on software, you have probably also invested weeks of work to solve a software problem or even given up on a software because of missing documentation. Finding a project that might be the solution to your problem and then failing to run the code is frustrating. Being unable to run a project you have built yourself years ago is even worse. Having experienced all those setbacks myself in the past I want to use this post to channel that frustration to fuel solutions for better documentation for our current and future projects.
