This meetup is inspired by a video to help people contribute to chircollab (April 18-19, 2020) but is relevant to any team working with Git, GitHub and R.
Why is this important?
Although we discussed the GitHub workflow before, I suspect some people might want to refresh it or ask questions based on their practice so far.
Particularly, they may now prefer a particular tool.
However they want to do it, we should all be able to contribute to each other's projects, using the popular and minimalist GitHub workflow.
What should be covered?
A hands-on session that completes the GitHub workflow cycle. We may run this meetup in break out rooms of 2 people including one helper.
Setup and explain the task.
Show the solution with one tool.
Break out and let people do the challenge* with their favorite tool.
Questions, comments.
Continued support in helpdesks
The challenge may hosted in a GitHub repo like this:
The challenge may be explained in 01-github-workflow/README.md. All other files in 01-remove-your-file-and-submit-a-pull-request/ are named after one participant. The challenge is for each participant to do this:
Fork the repo.
Clone the repo.
Remove the file in 01-github-workflow/ with their name.
Submit a PR to upstream (2degreesinvesting/git-challenge).
We aim to complete the challenge in 10' during the meetup but people are welcome to do it later before 4pm Berlin time of the following day. At that point, I will contact the people who haven't completed the challenge and encourage them to join a helpdesk.
Suggested speakers or contributors
It'd be great to have as many helpers as possible from the coding-helpdesk.
