Individual approach

  • ad-hoc manual file base collaboration
  • manual version control

centralized version control

  • playing the server and the clients client
  • commiting, revisions and tags
  • file locking, blaming
  • branching and forking

decentralized version control

  • everyone is a server! (and a client...)
  • local commitment is good for the community
  • merging and conflict solving

Hands on git - 15:30 > 18:00
