Learning Git

GitLab Group

The Fluids Lab has a group on the uWaterloo GitLab server. It can be found here. If you don't have access, click the request access button and someone will approve you. By sharing repositories with the group, you can make them immediately available to everyone else in the group, making it a very efficient way to share code with other lab members. This is also a nice way to help make sure that, after you graduate, your code doesn't vanish with you, and future generations can continue to use the tools that you built.
