This workshop covers the basics of version control with two widely used tools, Git and GitHub. Version control is the practice of tracking and managing changes to software code. Version control systems are software tools that help individuals or teams manage changes to source code over time. We will walk through installation and basic workflows to get you up and running with these tools.

Our policy is that we do not record live workshops in order to encourage robust Q&A. However, you can always find the full workshop materials for all of our workshops at: https://library.virginia.edu/data/training/past-workshops which allows you to work through the material at your own pace. We also encourage you to reach out to the instructor at any time for a one-on-one consult, and for specific or general questions about any of the topics we cover.
