Advance features: Working with Others
GitHub Brunch
Tips on working with others
- Distribute tasks to group members to avoid working on the same file.
- Remember to pull FIRST everytime you re-start working on the project
- Commit and push frequently!
- Repeat the
pull--commit--push
until you get use to it!
Some other thoughts…
- RStudio appears to be limited to pulling, syncing and committing.
- Advanced features require familiarity with GitHub
