should fit with http://dsi.virginia.edu/ .

Pete will create a GitHub repository that we will use to demonstrate and test, as per
#14 (comment)

right now it's just barebone

as per https://github.com/UVA-DSI/git-intro/community .

e.g. as per https://github.com/github/gitignore

e.g. from https://github.com/Daniel-Mietchen/learning2code/blob/master/cheatsheets.md

that would have to take place after they all got an account and made it know to us.
Could be a milestone.

• should reflect what's in the schedule and the exercises
• the last one could be posted as part of explaining milestones

just an idea right now - not sure we should really be doing that

https://github.com/UVA-DSI/git-intro/blob/master/exercises.md
https://github.com/UVA-DSI/git-intro/blob/master/usage-examples.md
https://github.com/UVA-DSI/git-intro/blob/master/schedule.tsv

version control (1)

• software
• text files

git

GitHub

GitLab

version control (2)

• data

as a direct follow-up to #19, Daniel will need permissions to add everyone as a collaborator to the repo, and this is achieved by making him an 'owner' of the repo.

e.g. as per
https://education.github.com/ .

I have started to play around with this, but nothing of that is publicly visible so far.

still to decide:

• whether we send it out beforehand or do it live on stage

appear.in/dsi-conference

and link from each time slot to the corresponding files, as per #17.

e.g. as per
https://github.com/sparcopen/open-research-doathon/blob/master/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md

Perhaps best to move event-specific things like schedule and participant survey to a dedicated subdirectory and to make the rest of the repo more generic.

should give a rough breakdown of the 3h or so that the session is to last.

This is to help us collect the account names, so that everyone can be given permission to work with the demo repository of #19.

example from last year: one potato, two potato

Good afternoon. I'm a research fellow in the Department of Surgery and Center for Public Health Genomics. I've heard from other researchers at UVa that user accounts and organization accounts can be upgraded to Pro-level so that we can have unlimited private repos and some other perks. Separately, I read on this GitHub help page about GitHub Education schools. Is UVa a GitHub Education school, or has UVa considered it?

the idea is to select one of these to send out to students for reading ahead of time.

e.g. as per
https://github.com/sparcopen/open-research-doathon/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

so that the exercises can take place in there.

Depends on #19, #20, #21.
