README

        
# experimental

This is an experimental Github repository in which I will do some experiments to test out different teaching techniques for this service and the Git application.

## The README.md file

In Github you are required to have a README.md file in every repository. This is the file that displays the content on the front page of your repository. In some cases the entire repository consists of only this file.

The ".md" extension refers to the markup language used in Github: Markdown. Markdown purportedly makes it easier to write HTML, though I tend to disagree.

But if you ask Ray about it he'll tell you that's just me. He loves Markdown.

## Main branch changes

Now we are working on two branches. One is the master - or main - branch, the other is an alternate one. The changes I'm making now are in the Master branch. Because I've already branched off from it these changes will not be added in the alternative branch.

## Fast Forward

When there are no conflicts, rather than a merge you get what's called a "Fast Forward". This just means that the files are added onto or changed automatically and nothing is really merged.

## Rebasing

This is where things get interesting. Now I'm going to make several changes to the same file in different branches. This would be similar to you doing work on a fork while the master branch moves forward.

## Brakcets support

Interestingly Brackets allows for syntax highlighting of Markdown and Github flavored Markdown!

## Markdown examples

1. list item one

2. list item two

3. list item three

- list item one

- list item two

- list item three
