Create a visual git student handout #104

Open willingc opened 10 years ago

One bit of feedback we got yesterday from Hartnell mentors was that one mentor drew a diagram of what fork/clone/etc. meant, visually; perhaps that means the student handout could grow such a diagram.

Create a visual git student handout.

This is great!

FYI, I did something like the following diagram before starting the first few steps of the activity, in an attempt to outline the general process before the students got started. 2014-11-17 10 58 53

Then as we went though the activity, I added more to the diagram during each step, something like this. 20141117_110218

Then there were some merge conflicts, and we described a way to resolve them going forward, which was illustrated like this: 2014-11-17 11 07 58

@katieirenec Do you mind if I use these in an IPython notebook or doc to teach some students at Cal State San Marcos?

@willingc Go for it! Anyone is welcome to use them. My hope is that they make it easier someone to illustrate git on the whiteboard in the future.
