📣 Upcoming talk with R-NVSU
I’ll be giving a session on Git & GitHub in RStudio: Practical Version Control for Data Work for the R-NVSU community.
We’ll focus on:
• Git fundamentals as they appear in RStudio
• using the Git pane safely
• when to use the GUI vs the terminal
• practical workflows for R projects

If you are using #Git, I strongly recommend the Fosdem talk An Efficient Git Workflow For High-Stakes Projects by Vladislav Shpilevoy
With my team we are using a workflow very close to that one for years (we even named the team Rebase to stress this fact), and it's really an efficient way!

All our #git repository hosting VMs have now been updated in production and are running the #gameoftrees web server gotwebd.
See here for how to configure the web server in gotsys.conf: https://gameoftrees.org/gotsys.conf.5.html#WEB_SERVER_CONFIGURATION
The web server name to use in the configuration is your subdomain.gothub.org
Custom domains can be added on request (and you'll need to set up an A record).

Remember when you learned #git and concluded that *you* were the problem?
Hackers can bypass #npm’s #ShaiHulud defenses via #Git dependencies
I'm after some advice from folk that use #Git . I have my own self hosted Git server and I have one repository that I'd like to empty of all content and history. I know I can just delete the remote repository and recreate it again starting a fresh. But would using git push --force not just do the same by overwriting the remote repository with the locals contents ? Or could I end up with files in the remote that are not in my local ???
I should also say that I am the only person that pushes to this remote repo too. Any help or advice is very much appreciated and thank you.
"I feel very strongly that we should all use #git."
was were you began to spend time in the dark places.

Next week, #ReproducibiliTea in the HumaniTeas in Cologne is organising a two-day extravaganza of Quarto workshops and talks: https://gschwier.pages.git.nrw/quartoworkshop2026/
We are making online attendance possible for the world to join in the fun! Online and on-site @unibibkoeln registration is possible via our homepage.
#Quarto is a modern open-source publishing system that turns plain text and code into polished papers, slides, websites, books, and teaching materials. It unifies writing and computation, supports seamless reproducible workflows, and bridges the gap between publishing your research and reusing the same transparent analyses in notebooks for teaching.
