Assignment 1 (20 min)

Read David's article on Git and GitHub

• Use the article and outside resources (Google!) to describe the general process of a collaborative git workflow in the space below.

Collaborative workflow in git revolves around forking and branching. The idea is that any group of users can be working on copies of the same material off of the master (where any code is ready to be deployed). Whether you fork a copy to make changes, or create branches to work on specific aspects of the project, you can make pull requests at any time. These bring the rest of the team or specific members into the loop to make comments or work with the code. I believe in most cases they have access to the work at all times, pull requests serve as a "look here" or "ready for the team" flag.

Assignment 2: OOP and Bottles (12 min)

Hey @francepack

Thanks for the feedback. I was definitely getting confused about formatting throughout the class. I worked in your comments - please let me know if I should keep working on this one!
