Source Code
Source Control
The single most valuable skill you can have, hands down, no questions asked.
What is it?
A system that tracks changes to all source code that is a part of your project. By everybody.
Why Even Care?
Great point. Let's create a %-screwed Chart
- Your hard drive crashes
- You're working on a group project
- You want to make sure your code works
- You'll be working on the project for longer than a week
- A month?
- A year?
- Something broke, but you're not sure when it broke.
- 100%
- n*33 (max 100)%
- 99.8%
- 75%
- 95%
- 100%
- 50-100%
Why Even Care?
You will be doing all of these things if you write code for anyone ever.
That's between 469.8% and 669.8% screwed
Other Benefits
- Unit Testing
- Share-ability
- Build Machines
- Consistency
- Business Sign Off
But It's Hard
I don't like hard things

Surprise! It's not. Seriously, it's not.
Let me show you.
