Using Git & GitHub from Eclipse: A Quick and Practical Introduction
In just an hour get a clear understanding of how Git & GitHub is used professionally. Perfect for college students!
Course Overview
One of the most fundamental tools that is part of any software development process is a Version Control System (VCS). It helps developers working on the same project to collaborate easily. Furthermore, a VCS helps maintain different versions of the project's source code as it evolves. In the last decade or so, Git has become the most popular VCS out there. Organizations expect every developer they hire to be familiar with it. However, it is also very common for someone just starting their professional journey to be not familiar with Git. It can be quite daunting to learn Git quickly as most online courses are generally quite in-depth teaching from the very basics of how to use Git from command line. In reality, the most common use-case of using Git is from an IDE and many resources do not focus on this aspect. Understanding the basic workflow of using Git from IDE is also quite straightforward.
This special bridge module has been designed to quickly (just one hour) help you get up-to-speed in using Git & GitHub in the most professional way, which is from an IDE. In this module we use Eclipse as the IDE. We start by learning what a VCS in general is and then proceed to learn about the basics of Git & GitHub. In section 2, we learn how to use Git & GitHub from within Eclipse. We simulate a more realistic scenario and work through the entire workflow of having two developers from the same team contributing to the same code. Everything is demonstrated step-by-step in a very clear way. With time the course would also be extended to include more relevant and advanced topics. You get a certificate upon course completion.
