Hackathon Sessions: Demystify Git

Hackathon Sessions: Demystify Git
Are you a data scientist or analyst who finds Git a bit overwhelming? Have you ever encountered the dreaded merge conflict? You’re not alone! Join us for "Hackathon Sessions: Demystify Git", designed specifically for those new to Git and version control.

What is Git and Why Does it Matter? 

Git is the backbone of popular version control platforms like GitHub and GitLab, making it essential for managing code, tracking changes, and collaborating effectively. Originally built for developers, Git is now a must-have tool for anyone working in tech or data science who wants to stay organized and collaborate seamlessly. 

What You’ll Learn:

  • Git Basics & What’s Under the Hood
    Understand how Git works and why it’s so powerful.

  • Command Line Confidence
    Perform essential tasks like commits, branching, and merging directly in the terminal.

  • Collaborative Workflows
    Learn practical skills for managing projects and working with tech teams.  

Led by Charlotte Møller, an experienced data engineer, this session is all about making Git approachable and practical through real-world exercises. Plus, you’ll have a great time networking, chilling over coffee and tea, and learning Git in a relaxed, supportive environment.  

This is a fully hands-on session, so you’ll bring your laptop with Git installed and actively work through exercises designed to help you apply what you learn right away. By the end, you’ll walk away with a solid understanding of Git's fundamentals and the confidence to use it in your day-to-day work. 

What You’ll Need:

💻 A laptop with Git installed 

No prior experience required—just bring your curiosity and a willingness to learn!
