Enhancing Developer Creativity With Git

·

·

This presentation was given at Wordcamp Chicago 2013 by Zack Tollman, a developer at The Theme Foundry, a company obsessed with building beautiful and functional template designs (themes) to use with your WordPress powered website. They will worry about the design details and clean code so you can stay focused on writing great content and running your business. Sort of what we also do at Openstream 😉

His talk at this year’s Wordcamp presents Git techniques that encourage developers to be creative with code in a responsible manner and it explains Git commands that improve a developer’s confidence in writing creative code without the consequences of breaking existing functionality.

He also claims that 90% of people have Gitphobia, although it’s pretty easy to learn and you can find tons of information about it on the web. The presentation is for advanced git users, so if you’re just starting you might have to read up on Git first.

Unfortunately, the slides are not visible in the video, but here’s a link to the PDF to read along.
