Edward and Martin talk with Joe Nashabout using Git in education, self-diagnosed OCD around capitalization,and using pull requests in non-development workflows.
Joe is the student program manager at GitHub, where his work aims tohelp student leaders build inclusive learning communities. When notcapitalising the H in GitHub, Joe can usually be found talking aboutthe educational benefits of hackathons, or rolling d20s.
Git reminds me of some academic concepts. You can teach it, but It only really makes sense if you know the history of what came before and have worked at a level of complexity where you NEED it. Once you get there it changes your worldview but explaining why that’s so is SO hard.
