Abstract:

There are always at least two people working on any document! You and yourself four months later who can't figure out why you did things that way. Have you learned that saving iterative versions of files is confusing, especially when you are developing complicated applications or documents?

If you work simultaneously with other people, you have discovered that emailing versions of documents back and forth is impossible to manage.

Come this friday to learn how to avoid these problems and more by using Git, the most advanced distributed version control system in the world.
