We continue on our journey to learn how to use Git to do version control as a single person, but this time with multiple devices.

This week our guest is Gregg Vanderheiden, Professor and Director Trace R&D Center at the College of Information Studies at the University of Maryland.

Bart Busschots joins us for Chit Chat Across the Pond in an episode of what he calls “Programming Adjacent”. It’s not about programming, it’s actually about cooking and not wasting food.
