0017 ##### Learning Git {#learning}
0018
0019 Test {% include navigation/findlink.md name='git' tag='Git' %} is a
0020 distributed version-control system for tracking changes in source
0021 code. It has been designed to handle everything from small to very
0022 large projects with speed and efficiency and is widely used in science
0023 and industry. Git is open source and avavailable for free.
0024
0025 For a tutorial on using Git in research, we recommend the Software
0026 Carpentry lesson on {% include navigation/findlink.md
0027 name='git-lesson' tag='Version Control with Git' %}.
0028
0029 For further details on Git, we refer to the {% include
0030 navigation/findlink.md name='git-book' tag='Pro Git book' %} that is
0031 available for free on the Git website.

0039 ##### GitHub Guidelines {#guidelines}
0040
0041 We encourage you to share your software and documentation on {% include navigation/findlink.md name='github' tag='https://github.com/eic' %}. Please follow our guidelines in doing so:
0042
0043 * Please use a unique name for your repository so that we can easily identify projects. We will, e.g., have various Geant4 related projects and each of these projects should have a name that is distinguishable from the others (and not Geant4).
0044 * Please {% include navigation/findlink.md name='github_adding_topics' tag='add at least one topic to your repository' %}.
0045 * Please give a clear description of your repository, e.g., ”Mary Johnson (Lab)’s DVCS MC” or “William's Smith (University) DIS analysis”.
