sc-shell-example

This repository is intended to be used as an example git workflow for use in a Software Carpentry git lesson.

Students should start off with no knowledge of this repository, and should download and extract the 1-initial-commit archive file.

Next, the students should be walked through through the scripts, as this provides good review from the Shell lesson.

Then, the students should perform the following exercises, one at a time;

1. Execute the setupProject.sh script, then commit results.
2. Mv all shell scripts to the code/ directory, then commit results.
3. Execute the code/cleanData.sh script, then commit results.
4. Execute the code/combine.sh script, then commit results.

Additionally, the steps above can also be combined with pushes to a remote repo.

Each exercise provides many opportunities to teach aspects of a git and/or github workflow.
