Overview

GIT is a DevOps tool used for source code management. It is a free and open-source version control system used to handle small to very large projects efficiently. GIT is used to tracking changes in the source code, enabling multiple developers to work together on non-linear development.
GIT allows distributed, serverless, version control management of software and document management. This workshop-based course provides hands on exposure to GIT on the command line, through GUIs and onto servers such as GITHub. You will learn how GIT works, explore strategies to work with it effectively.
The course is delivered as a mixture of discussions, demos and hands on exercises. Practical sessions follow the main topics, designed to reinforce the points covered. Additional information is provided in appendices to extend the learning experience after the course has been completed.

Thinking about Onsite?

If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.

Submit an enquiry from any page on this site and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
