Git and GitHub for PHP Projects

For those who use windows, here is a nice app to give you a visual client of git. You invoke the app by right clicking in a directory which you have a git repo in.

https://tortoisegit.org/

It's a very helpful tool to visualize what you are doing with git as oppose to strictly relying on command line tools.

Here is also a couple of really simple guides to Git worth referencing:

Great presentation! wished we would have got into some live usage but there's lots of resources online for getting started with git and github anyway. I found this https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/

As a new git user I really appreciated this workshop. Beau was also super helpful dealing with questions about specific problems people had encountered.

It was a great talk - i'm new to git and it inspired me to stay with it knowing that it's 'not just me' that is confused at the beginning.
