I had understood that next week's discussion would be more aimed at top
down pragmatic use of git in the real world - hopefully based on the
"tools should make life easier, not inflict pain" principal.
We had a bottom up talk a while back. I think Ian gave it?

I have more of my own stuff on Gitlab. However, I'm interested in learning a bit
more about using git effectively in collaboration with others no matter which platform
(or their own site) they are using. The git paradigm is not trivial. For those of us
who use it sporadically there is some "relearning" each time. Recently I found I failed
to get a pull request to work properly. Still not sure why. I suspect there's other
members who are not power users of git who can benefit from some helpful cheat notes
and diagrams, as well as an overview of the web interface.

Hi John and Robert
There might be time for a Github vs Gitlab chat. Several notable projects went to Gitlab, possibly due to a long
standing antipathy to Microsoft. I am at Github myself.
Cheers

I suspect Scott will get this via the list, but just in case ...
Probably worth a little coordination so we have a smooth meeting.
Thanks, JN

A discussion of using git (in particular on github) is one of the
items for next week's meeting. I suggested it after realizing that I
didn't manage a change properly with an R package I'm developing
with a colleague I've never met but have been sharing development
with for the last couple of years.
Your input would be most welcome.
well, if there's an open speaking slot, i can present what i was
thinking of as a 35-40 minute "brown bag" lunchtime seminar. it's a
little bit techie -- it explains the structure of Git's object store
and how Git actually stores history using a combination of blobs,
trees, commits and tags.
if people are interested, i can give that one.
