Description: 
This session is aimed at people who are new to git and the concepts of distributed version control systems (DVCS). If you're just getting started using git or have never used it and want to learn about it, this session is for you.

We'll cover: 
Basic principles of DVCS and how they might differ from the version control systems that you're accustomed to.- Why the command line is your friend (but we'll look at some GUI tools as well).- Examples covering common git usage scenarios.- Using git on a development team.

Note: because this is the .NET user group we'll be using Windows for the examples in this talk, though many of the tools we'll look at also have Mac versions and the concepts will be the same regardless of what operating system you use.
