Course on "Git for scientific projects: manage your code and work in teams"
Lecturer: Dimitri Marinelli, “Maria Zambrano” Pot-doc at UBICS
When: June 20, 2023, 11h -13h
Place: Aula Seminari Pere Pascual (5.07)

Abstract:
Collaboration is a fundamental aspect of coding in modern scientific research, and even in the unlikely case that you are the only one to look at your code, you will have the need to go back to older versions or to experiment on something without affecting the version that works already, but does not have that extra feature yet.
In today's world, 'git' has become the go-to tool for managing the history of your code, and more. In the first hour, I will explain the benefits of using 'git', what makes it valuable, and how online services like Github and Gitlab can assist in preserving your code and collaborating in teams. I will only cover a few key concepts that will allow you to easily apply version control to your code.
Then, in the second hour, for those interested and want to try, we will have a hands-on session where we try 'git' and use it on your code or on some examples I will provide.
Participants should bring their laptops to the session.
Note:
If the number of places is exceeded, the order of registration will be respected.
If demand is high, another session will be held and those affected will be informed.
