Description

This is a two-part half-day workshop. The first part will cover a modified version of the “Version Control with Git” Software Carpentry lesson, tailored for a non-developer audience, with more focus on metadata (typically taught as a half-day, 3 hour workshop). The second part will focus on the use of Git and GitHub in the context of metadata workflow.

We will present examples and strategies, taken from recent work by UC Santa Barbara and UC San Diego, of version control, pull requests, and automated hooks and integrations as they relate to moving metadata through a workflow and into our repositories.

Presenters:

  • Chrissy Rissmeyer (UCSB)
  • Matt Critchlow (UCSD)
  • Alex Dunn (UCSB)
