Aim and content
This is a generic course. This means that the course is reserved for PhD students at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences at UCPH.
Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at the Graduate School, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to the waiting list.
The course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD students at NorDoc member faculties. All other participants must pay the course fee.
Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
1. Backup their work regularly and with low effort

3. Use the command line to interact with GitHub, including creating repositories, updating their local copy from the remote repo and pushing their changes to remote
4. Understand how to edit, improve and maintain scripts with multiple contributors
Content
The course will introduce the version control language git and the online platform GitHub, which implements git to provide a framework for backup and version control of digital work such as scripts, as well as a popular platform for collaboration and dissemination of scientific software. It will provide an overview of the fundamental functionalities of git and GitHub and how to access them both via the graphical web interface as well as the command line.
