Git Collaborative With GitHub

In this workshop, you will learn the basics of Git and GitHub, two essential tools for software development. You will learn how to:

- What is git and GitHub
- Set up a Git repository
- Add, commit, and push files to a repository
- Create and merge branches
- Use pull requests to collaborate on code
- Work with GitHub features like issues and pull requests

The workshop will be hands-on, and you will use a follow-up repository to practice your skills. The repository also includes games that will help you learn about Git and GitHub in a fun way.

This workshop is designed for beginners, so no prior experience with Git or GitHub is required.

This workshop was arranged for the participants of Microsoft ADC's Game of Learners Program (https://www.microsoft.com/MEA/Gameoflearners/) Season 4. It is meant to help them learn about Git, and GitHub, and how to maximize the use of both.

6. Commits are checkpoints Branches are alternative versions of our code Merging is synchronizing branches 2. De-jargoning
7. Commit Are checkpoints Describe what happened By reallygreatsite 1.
8. Branches Alternate realities/versions Work freely without changing the original By reallygreatsite 1.
9. Main branch is sacred and should be handled with care By reallygreatsite 1.
10. Merging Syncronizing branches By reallygreatsite 1.
