Version Management with Git
The practical application of a distributed version control system such as Git quickly makes it clear that more than just the available commands and functions are new. This break with old concepts leads to new approaches, especially in the areas of workflows and best practices.
The seminar provides an introduction and presents participants with typical working methods for Git. It also shows how you can freely define your own workflows using Git, which best practices have proved their worth in the enterprise environment and how the existing working methods can be transferred to Git in a meaningful way.
Duration
2 days
goal
