Book Description
Whether you're an experienced developer or a novice, learning to work with version control systems is a must in the software development domain. Git is the most popular tool for this purpose, and GitHub was built around it, making its capabilities available on the web.
You'll start with the basics of creating a repository, before moving on to learn how to manage the issue tracker, the place where discussions about your project take place. As you progress, you'll get up to speed with using GitHub's built-in wiki and writing rich documentation. You will also understand organization and team management and even explore some of GitHub's most popular features, including pull requests. Next, you'll get to grips with creating simple web pages hosted on GitHub. Finally, you'll discover settings that are configurable for both a user and a repository.
By the end of this book, you will have developed the skills you need to efficiently collaborate and work on software projects using GitHub.
