Use cases for git and GitHub#

Two examples:

Keep track of changes locally#

  • if you code, you can keep an eye on your changes. Highlight current differences in your way forward to a solution. Especially usefull when working with Coding Assistents based on AI which rewrite your code

Collaborate with others and keep changes in sync#

  • Google Docs, Word or Overleaf is used to work collaborative on manuscripts

  • GitHub and git can be used to do the same on public documentation or code
