In this lesson we use Git from the Unix Shell. Some previous experience with the shell is expected, but is not mandatory. Alternatively, this course can be followed on Windows using Git Bash.
You will need a GitHub account for the afternoon session. Please sign up for an account this morning if you do not already have an account. {: .prereq}
