Group projects are always a challenge. If group members are in different locations, collaboration becomes an even bigger problem. Does multiple people editing the same document, multi-versions of the same document, “good revisions” overwritten by accident ….. sound familiar?

Join this workshop and discover how to take the challenge out of group projects using Github, Bitbucket, and Git. Solve team collaboration problems quickly; such as, multiple members editing the same document resulting in multi-versions.
