This tutorial will address the source code management (SCM) tool named Git. 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.

 More in-depth documentation can be found on the official home page, which mentions books, videos, and links to other tutorials and references.
