    2/9 Research Software Engineering with Python (COMP0233) - Git Part 2

    In this episode we look into more essential Git commands, such as branching and merging. Branching and merging are key concepts that help you develop code or even text documents in a team. They help you maintain different versions of files and work on them independently. Another element of collaborative working is provided by GitHub: the pull request. Pull request are a great way to do code reviews, which avoids introducing bugs and also learn from each other. In my conversations Sam and Eirini talk about these key features and their experiences with it.
