This course is part of a micro-credential track, a micro-credential has the added value of being like a mini-diploma. If you'd like to follow the full track, you will become able to improve the reproducibility of your research. Check this opportunity: Reproducible Data Analysis: an Essential Capability in Modern Science.This course is designed for researchers and support staff who are new to version control and want to adopt best practices for managing code and collaborating on scientific projects. As research becomes increasingly computational, using free tools like Git and GitHub is essential for tracking changes, ensuring reproducibility, and working efficiently in teams. In this hands-on session, you will learn how to set up Git, manage your project history, and collaborate using GitHub. By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently use Git from the command line, create and manage repositories, and contribute to shared projects through branching and pull requests.
