relationship between teacher_pet and github-plus-university

[eduOS]

Hello dear jdavis,

I am doing a research where a command line tool is needed to facilitate the process. I have two options, your wonderful github-plus-university and the official education/teachers_pet. Could you please tell me the relationship between yours and the official one? I am using it in non-coding classes.

Thanks for your time.

Hey @eduOS.

The resources that I have just helps with getting things setup. It is a website that makes it easy to get students to join your organization and give them permissions. It does the following:

• Validates that they are actually on the class roster that you provide.
• Uses their GItHub login to "register" for the class. This maps students to their GitHub repoistories with little effort on your part.
• Creates a private repository for them
• Adds them to an individual team just for the student

It doesn't do anything beyond that. teachers_pet has other features such as downloading all repos and other things like that.

Let me know if you need any more hlep!

Thanks for you help. I want to know if I can do any analysis between branches. Cause, everyone in a team creates several branches to do their work collaboratively under the name in the form of name+number.

What kind of analysis are you looking to do?

[eduOS]

All branches could not be merged but would be treated as forks in different time points. Consider this: A creates a branch at time a from the master branch, and then creates another after the master has been changed. How could I analyse these two branches? Or I could just ask this way, how could I do branch-level analysis?

I don't know whether my request is reasonable or not.

Thank you for you time.
