Rearranging order of the offline stage tasks related to git

Dmytraw commented 5 years ago

When I was going through offline stage, task 2 - git and github - seemed more basic and provided better introduction than task 0. So i suggest to swap these two tasks.

I have add mentors as reviewers, so let's discuss. Also, probably @Dmytraw is a candidate to a badge? I dunno.

Regarding the PR - IMO, we should ask opinion of other students. But this is completely up to you, because you are in charge here :)

Seconding @zonzujiro . We should ask other students that have passed both git related tasks to make sure there is an issue and swapping is an appropriate solution.

OleksiyRudenko commented 5 years ago

@Dmytraw You did a big job!

However there are several issues we will face as the course has already launched and many people are somewhere within 3 initial tasks:

changing task title will break euristic tie between task naming in students' course repos README.md's - please, consider keeping former titles as intact as only possible
changing file names will break links from external repos - imo filenames may remain intact with no harm to course content, anyway students follow the next task link or contents.md; changing descriptive 'collaboration' to ordinal 'intermediate' imo doesn't pay, I'd rather suggest changing intro and advanced into smth more descriptive
if we merge this PR as it is then students who would have just finished Linux CLI will be surprised to see former Git Intro task - definitely need a Nota Bene for this

Please, also change order of tasks in ./contents.md and ./tasks/README.md.

What do you think re above?

P.S. Please, hold on until we collect some feedback on the swap from students.

@OleksiyRudenko I think that this improvement should be introduced in the next iterations of kottans as merging it now will cause a lot of misunderstaning including issues you have described.

I think task titles should be changed as well because it looks more consistent: git intro (an introduction to a technology) -> git intermediate (some knowledge already acquired, but more practice and techniques to come) -> git advanced (advanced and more specific tools to understand)

Please, also change order of tasks in ./contents.md and ./tasks/README.md. will do

Added a question re tasks swap to the General Basics course part survey

Dmytraw commented 5 years ago

I have updated contents.md.

Those numerous commits are my first attempt to rebase :D

@Dmytraw first of all, thank you for this PR. It is always great to see activity from our students :)

As was discussed between mentors, there is no necessity in such rearranging of tasks right now.

Maybe we will return to this question after finishing the online part of the course.
