I'd add git bisect to advanced usage. It is an incredible tool when working in distributed teams.

Thinking about it we should probably also cover merging a pull request on GitHub and probably also merging changes from upstream repositories. Not sure if the latter should be in the GitHub or Git workshop though.

Probably could also do with some simple best practice rules for both Git and GitHub.

I'd do merging from upstream as part of the git stuff, but also cover how to do it through github. Not all git projects are on github after all.
