Learning to use Git - erex/from-asus GitHub Wiki

I have created this github site as a learning exercise for versioning to describe to my students in MT3607: Computing in Statistics.

However, I am trying to appreciate the utility of git not only for coding projects, but also for storage of data files that are in continual process of being revised and updated.

The same holds true for class notes, particularly with multiple authors. This leads very naturally into the topic of training workshops where there is information from multiple authors pouring in. Differencing of the workshop repositories will be difficult because it will not be straight text, but rather binaries (in the form of Word and PowerPoint files) that will be versioned. However, this could work nicely with Monique's course that is reliant upon Latex rather than Microsoft products.
