DESCRIPTION:So here you are\, working on your neat little application\, wr
 iting some Matlab code for an assignment or perhaps just writing a large d
 ocument. Maybe you are doing it on your own or perhaps you are part of a g
 roup sending documents or source code via email. You are used to being abl
 e to change anything at any time\, so why should you even bother using ver
 sion control or its modern cousin\, distributed version control (DVC)? Eve
 n if you do how do you get started and where do you get help?\n\nDr. Wareh
 am has over a decade of experience in writing academic and commercial soft
 ware in teams and as an independent researcher\, and he will attempt to co
 nvince you that there are many practical reasons to use distributed versio
 n control and in particular Git.\n \nWhether you want to track changes to 
 your CV or contribute to the Linux Kernel\, you better Git it!
