Version Control with Git (Jun 2025) - NCI

This workshop is being run as part of a collaboration between QCIF and National Computational Infrastructure (NCI). 

Version control is the lab notebook of the digital world: it’s what professionals use to keep track of what they’ve done and to collaborate with other people. Every large software development project relies on it, and most programmers use it for their small jobs as well. And it isn’t just for software: books, papers, small data sets, and anything that changes over time or needs to be shared can and should be stored in a version control system.

This workshop will take place on Friday, 27th June (9:00-1:30 AEST). Please only register if you are able to fully commit to attending.
