Workshop Dortmund (TU Dortmund)
Workshop Git GitLab Carpentries
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.

Comments on Collaboration - My Experience with the DKZ.2R Rent-an-Expert Program

At the beginning of this year (2025), I received an email regarding the DKZ.2R “Rent an expert” program. I was very interested in this initiative and therefore applied for support from the scientific consulting team at the Rhine-Ruhr Center for Scientific Data Literacy (DKZ.2R) for assistance with my data analysis.

I obtained my master’s degree in Plant Nutrition from the China Agricultural University and pursued my PhD study at the University of Hohenheim. I am currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Institute of Crop Science and Resource Conservation, Crop Functional Genomics, at the University of Bonn.
My research expertise includes plant culturing, molecule cloning, biochemical analysis and limited data analysis experience on large-scale NGS datasets.
Since the beginning of April 2025, two DKZ.2R consultants were assigned to me: Tarek Iraki, who is proficient in programming languages such as Python, and Lennard Maßmann, who specializes in working with R. Together, we collaboratively worked on my Postdoctoral project, which focuses on the molecular and genomic dissection of lateral root development in maize.
