Dear NFDI4Microbiota community, from now on, we will present to you upcoming courses and workshops for the NFDI4Microbiota community on a bimonthly base. Please feel free to (additionally) check out our training calendar on our web portal<https://nfdi4microbiota.de/training/training>. Today, we would like to draw your attention to our next Git workshop on the 26th of September: git/GitHub for Microbiologists Workshop @ NFDI4 Microbiota - ONLINE event Git is the most commonly used version control system. Git tracks the changes you make to files, so you have a record of what has been done, and you can revert to specific versions should you ever need to. Git also makes collaboration easier, allowing changes by multiple people to all be merged into one source. So regardless of whether you write code that only you will see, or work as part of a team, Git will be useful for you. For this workshop the following topics will be covered: · understanding of the possibilities of Reproducible Research and data processing · basic skills in the Unix-Shell, version control with git and using GitHub · will have found out about live-coding and compared notes with colleagues The workshop will include short tutorials alternating with practical exercises, so please bring your laptop with a Mac, Linux, or Windows operating system (not a tablet, Chromebook, etc.). This is an introductory course, so you don't need to have any previous knowledge of the tools that will be presented at the workshop. For example, do you know how to use the terminal? If you do not, come and join us! Registration is open<https://www.eventbrite.de/e/git-for-microbiologists-workshop-nfdi4-microbiota-online-2022-09-26-tickets-414509207197> until 21st of September.
