How much of git do we want to teach? #34

Closed s-weigand closed 4 years ago

s-weigand commented 4 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Most students that have no/only little experience in programming don't know git or how to use it. Do we want to teach git and if yes how much of it do we want to teach?

Describe the solution you'd like IMO git in more detail (commit, branches, cherrypick), would be a huge benefit for students. Also we could tell the about GUI tools like GitKraken. But knowing how to use git with the CLI should be mendatory, since GitKraken sometimes has "hickups", which you can only fix with the CLI.

Describe alternatives you've considered Just teach the basics of git, so people are able to contribute to the project itself (CONTRIBUTING.md #9)

Also here is a nice talk about git 😉 Git as scifi

I would suggest to postpone it, till the main essence of this project is barely done, supporting python knowledge and showing what nice tools there are in the python world.

I can btw recommend this git book/site. It helped me a lot when i was learning to get through git.

git book from 2009

I would like to attach this as compendium.

tutorials.md would be a good place for that I guess (see #9 )
