Planning to attend ALA Annual 2019?

My colleagues and I from the Tufts University libraries are teaching a workshop on \
Git. Take the opportunity to come home with some new skills from a half-day \
pre-conference introduction to Git and GitHub on Friday, June 21st from 12-4pm.

The session will include practical, hands-on instruction for version control and \
collaboration in Git, as well as experience building a simple & free website on \
GitHub!

Beginning Git & GitHub
Friday, June 21
12:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Registration and logisitics \
<https://www.eventscribe.com/2019/ALA-Annual/fsPopup.asp?Mode=presInfo&PresentationID=518954&query=Git>


Work smarter, collaborate faster and share code or other files with the library \
community using the popular version control system Git. Featuring a mix of git \
fundamentals and hands-on exercises, participants learn the basics of Git, learn how \
to use key commands, and how to use GitHub to their advantage, including sharing \
their own work and building upon the projects of others.

Git is a tool (technically, a version control system) that allows you to easily track \
changes in your files, scripts, websites, or entire programs. You can run it on your \
own computer for your own projects, but Git also makes it easy to collaborate with \
others on shared projects - thus helpful to small teams, large organizations, and \
people coordinating on open source projects. Easier collaboration is not the only \
advantage to using Git: you can also easily test out changes and write new code \
without threatening your existing work. It is very popular – verging on a necessity \
– amongst coders.

GitHub is a website that allows you to easily host and manage the code for \
git-tracked projects. It simplifies collaboration among project contributors, and is \
especially helpful for open source projects where you don't necessarily meet your \
fellow contributors in real life. GitHub is free if your code is open to the public. \
Bring your laptop for an afternoon of hands on exploration!
