Title: 

  Introduction To Git : Level up your VCS

Abstract:

Source Code Management and Version Control Systems are tools for

helping you track your file based assets (typically source code).

Traditional SCM systems are centralised (CVS, Subversion, Visual

Source Safe), Distributed version control systems systems provide new

capabilities, work-flows, are becoming mature and are gaining mind

share in the open source community.

Git is one of those Distributed Version Control Systems. It was

invented by the creator of Linux (Linus Torvalds) for protecting the

Linux kernel source code and coordinating the activity of hundreds of

developers. This talk discusses what Distributed Version Control is,

the history of Git, basic version control features and some very

uncommon and amazing capabilities of git. Time permitting it will

include live demonstration of the tools.

Come and hear how Git has reset my expectations for what VCS tools

should be capable of and how they should perform.
