About this Presentation
You've heard about Git, Mercurial, Bazaar and the Distributed Version Control System revolution. In this deeply hands on session, we'll load Git on participants laptops, build repositories and share out pieces of work. We'll explore the optimized agile workflows that Git facilitates, building branches for each story card and merging with our team mates, even when a network isn't present. We'll clone an existing Subversion repository, work on it in a Git fashion, and push just the “good changes” back to Subversion, showcasing the incredibly polished interoperability of this radical source code control tool.
This will be a hands on session and requires attendees to bring a laptop (Windows, Linux, or Mac).
