  This tutorial will address the source code management (SCM) tool named [[Git>>url:http://git-scm.com/||shape="rect"]]. By following these steps you should learn about the basic usage of Git, which is required for the whole practical course. Furthermore, Git is a great SCM tool, and it's good to know how to use it. During this tutorial, we will follow Alan Turing's thoughts towards developing the [[Turing Machine>>url:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_machine||shape="rect"]].
-- More in-depth documentation can be found on the [[official home page>>url:http://git-scm.com/documentation||shape="rect"]], which mentions books, videos, and links to other tutorials and references.

 . Read the [[Git for Computer Scientists>>url:http://eagain.net/articles/git-for-computer-scientists/||shape="rect"]] introduction (skip this if you are already familiar with Git).
 . For Linux, Git is available in its own package. Windows users can install [[msysGit>>url:http://msysgit.github.com/||shape="rect"]]. For MacOS, Git is available as part of [[Xcode>>url:https://developer.apple.com/xcode/||shape="rect"]]; if you cannot install that, use [[Git for OSX>>url:http://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/||shape="rect"]].

++Note that each commit is identified by a looong hash value, but it is possible to use only a prefix when referencing them (if the prefix is not ambiguous): the example above uses {{code language="none"}}52e2d49{{/code}} to identify the second commit. The commit hashes in your repository will be different from those seen in this tutorial, because the name of the author and the exact time of committing is also considered in the hash calculation. Also try the command {{code language="none"}}gitk{{/code}} to get an overview of your commits (a better alternative available for MacOS is [[GitX>>url:http://gitx.frim.nl/||shape="rect"]]).
