DESCRIPTION
These are the slides for a workshop I gave on June 2, 2014 at USC. They are an introduction to git and version control for my fellow scientists. Note that the branching section draws heavily on the diagrams and material from the Pro Git book (http://git-scm.com/book/), though I reimplemented them for my own uses.
