[Drand] Tutorial on the version control system Git

[Tor Kjellsson]

Dear all,

The PhD-council is inviting all interested to attend a set of two 
tutorials on an
extremely powerful and easy-to-use version control system called *Git*.

To name two benefits of using Git:
- It is an ideal tool for the development of joint projects, such as 
source code for
programs or writing papers.

- You get an efficient book keeping of your project, where you can 
access any
version of the project at any time without having to save multiple 
files/folders.

The speaker, Guus Sliepen from Solar physics, will give his two excellent
tutorials from earlier this year. From personal experience I strongly 
recommend
anyone interested in learning Git to attend them - I have benefited a lot!

Each of the tutorials is about 2 hours with 50% hands-on-experience.
The dates and times are:
*
1. Thursday 28/5*, *13.00-15.00
*In this session Guus gives a basic introduction to version control and 
you will get
acquainted with Git by learning the basic commands. No prior experience
is needed.

*2. Thursday* *4/6, 13.00-15.00
*In this session you will try the slightly more advanced commands where you
synchronize work with other people. It is recommended that you have either
attended the first tutorial or have experience in using Git for a local 
project
on your computer.

Those interested, please send me an e-mail *no later than next Thursday,**
**21/5*. Please also state which session(s) you are interested in 
attending so that
we can book a room of appropriate size.

Cheers!
Tor
