  • New Workshop: "Git Good: From Basics to Beyond in 4 Hours"

    I'll be giving a one-day, 4 hour workshop on December 8 and December 15 that will take you from the basics of Git all the way to advanced techniques like git rebase.

    This will be an interactive workshop where I teach you the core concepts of Git and practical techniques for everyday use. Participants will be given short, hands-on exercises to try while the event goes on so that you can learn quickly and ask questions.
