File types - what to use, commit, or place elsewhere #38

Closed marknovak closed 2 years ago

marknovak commented 2 years ago

Do we not yet discuss issues relevant to file types (flat, human vs. machine-readable, ASCII, etc. [I don't even know all the relevant terminology]) and the trade-offs involve in using them (no need for proprietary software, Git recognition of diffs, etc.)?

I know we've discussed this in class in the past, but I can't find it in any of our course notes.

This is discussed in Git Part 2. (Not sure how I missed it.)
