Version Control with Git

A solid data science workflow includes versioning your code and notebooks.

Basic Git workflow

git init                # create a repo
git add .               # stage all changes
git commit -m "Initial commit"

Branching

git checkout -b feature/eda   # create and switch to a new branch

Pushing to GitHub

git remote add origin https://github.com/yourname/ds-project.git
git push -u origin main
