Have you ever ruined your code by trying to "improve" it? Using version control, you can fearlessly edit your code without risking your hard-won progress. This workshop will teach you the fundamentals of version control with Git. You'll learn how to revisit earlier snapshots of your code, try out alternative versions of your project, and recover from disasters.

Participants should install Git on their computer prior to the first workshop. You can find installation instructions for your operating system here:
