We have two presentations for September: The fish shell and Git. Topic: The fish shell Speaker: I. Preston Preston will give us an introduction to the fish shell (http://fishshell.com/), "a smart and user-riendly command line shell for OS X, Linux, and the rest of the family", why you’d want to use it over bash or zsh, and some tips and tricks to get the most out of it. Preston is a software engineer at a Chandler start-up. He's a frequent presenter at http://desertpy.com, the founder of http://www.meetup.com/Language-Roulette, and a connoisseur of interesting and sometimes terrible programming languages. Topic: Intro to Git Speaker: Aaron Jones This will be a basic introduction to Git discussing how to use Git to handle version control, what version control is, and why we should use version control. He will also explain how to use Git in combination with Github.com and demonstrate how we can share files or contribute to projects using Git. Aaron is a web developer who enjoys using new technologies. He began using Linux while still a kid and is pro- VIM, GIT, CMUS, and NEWSBEUTER. His workflow is command line based and he hope's to help others learn more about computing, linux ,and the tools out there to make them more productive. --- The meeting will start at 7pm at The Desert Breeze Substation.
