Task Discussion


  • Matt said:

    Angela and I sat down and had a session on using git to push content from a project she started locally (on her laptop) to github. We decided to hold a session at City Camp Oakland to film an instructional demonstration and help attendees set up git and use github with their own computers.

    Further, we realized that this process can be a bit more complicated than you may think, so please post any questions or problems on this task as you work on it!
