Introduction to Git Version Control

Presented for the WebCamp 2015 track on Git.

Most newcomers to version control think Git is for backing up projects or reverting to older versions of a project easily. While Git does provide facilities to do those, it actually isn't about backups at all! It addresses a more fundamental problem in development.

The presentation highlights a short, sweet, and simple benefit of Git for any team project.
