Patchwork is organizing an event in Pittsburgh designed for beginners eager to learn Git and GitHub, as well as mentors who wish to assist others in this learning journey. Scheduled for August 7, 2017, at The Shop, the event offers a relaxed, hands-on workshop atmosphere where participants can engage with various self-directed modules, including introductions to GitHub and its desktop and command line interfaces. Attendees, who are encouraged to sign up for a GitHub account in advance, will have opportunities to complete a pull request and enhance their open-source contributions, while mentors will guide them through the process. The event, which is wheelchair accessible and provides gender-neutral restrooms, is supported by local partners and includes food and refreshments, as well as special acknowledgments for mentors.
