Learn git branching

A game to learn git branching:

Install sessions

Let’s aid people in installing and setting up git.

It could be cool to have a shared repo to work with.

Codeberg

We can practice using this site.

• Make an account with codeberg.
• Clone this repository.
• Find the file defining this page.
• Write something under the Playground headline.
• Commit the change and open a pull request on codeberg.

Goals

Suggested goals to aid expectations:

• Form a shared understanding of git
  • Through a talk
  • Through discussion

• Have created a local Repo
• Have created with some remote platform
• Have committed something
