  • Talk and tutorial presented to the Open Life Sciences 2020 Cohort ("OLS-2") on how to use GitHub for collaborative documentation. Abstract: Git isn’t just for code. Many communities also use Git to collate and curate documentation and user guides. One of the easiest ways to start using git is to contribute to existing documentation (even if it is just to fix a typo!) and go through the same processes as you would when editing someone else’s code or submitting your own. Using GitHub Pages is also a really easy way to create a “friendly” website to host your documentation, and make it available for people to use or contribute to. In this workshop you will: Set up your GitHub account Demystify the basic git commands and terminology Contribute to an exiting documentation repository, to go through the process of submitting a “pull request” to edit a page Set up your own GitHub Pages site, choose a Jekyll theme for styling, add some documentation content, and invite collaborations! Look at GitHub issues to track how and why your documentation has been updated* Look at Zenodo integration to give your documentation/site a digital object identifier which can be used to reference and provide attribution to your work*
