Abstract

Git is a well established, well received source version control system for the software development community and beyond. In an effort to better expose my students to the purpose and process of version control, I introduced Git as a mechanism to both disseminate in-class exercises and worked solutions as well as facilitate the submission of continuous assessment. I document in this paper my experience of the experiment and describe the steps required to marshall free third party services to support the tasks undertaken by students and lecturer.
