Are you still emailing zip files named project_final_v3_REALFINAL.zip? Does the thought of a "rebase" make you nervous?

Git is the backbone of modern software development, but it’s often taught poorly. This workshop ditches the confusing theory and focuses on the practical, hands-on skills you need to manage your code effectively and collaborate seamlessly on GitHub. Whether you are a solo developer or part of a growing team, join us to transform Git from a confusing obstacle into your most powerful productivity tool.

What You’ll Learn

In this interactive session, we will move beyond just typing commands and understand the why behind the workflow.

• The Foundations: Mastering the core lifecycle (init, add, commit) and understanding the staging area.

• Branching Strategy: How to safely experiment with new features without breaking your main codebase.

• The GitHub Flow: Pushing code to the cloud, opening effective Pull Requests (PRs), and conducting code reviews.

• Conflict Resolution: Demystifying merge conflicts and learning how to resolve them calmly.
