Putting it together: practice, hands-on work, Q&A

Now it’s your turn! Take some time this afternoon to practice and get comfortable with Git and GitHub. Here are some ideas to get you started:

• Create a GitHub repository for an existing project

• Practice creating a clone, fork, or branch of the PDB collaborations repo

• Put the last piece of code that you shared via email on GitHub (no passwords or login info!)

• Create a README file for one of your repositories, use the preview feature online to verify the formatting before committing

• Make a list of ways that you want to start using GitHub more for 1) your own individual projects and 2) the branch
