This presentation will cover the fundamental core concepts of git in the abstract, and should be useful for people who are new to Git, are new to version control in general, or fall into that category of "I use it but I don't really know why I'm typing the commands I'm typing."
Each core concept will be covered lightly, not in-depth, as this is an overview to all that git has to offer.
We will start with fundamental concepts to git, like the work tree, index, objects, hashes, and commits. We will move on to branching, merging, conflicts, and tags. We will learn how to undo our mistakes (that's what version control's all about, right?!) and wrap up with an understanding of sharing our code to others using remotes, pushing, and pulling.
Feel free to bring any Drupal questions or challenges you are facing in your current project.

Is there any hope at all for Drupal in Maine? I feel alienated out here with all the Wordpress stuff that has taken over :D Portsmouth is just to far away and technically is not in Maine. It's quite the drive for someone such as myself from Augusta area.
DrupalUG in Maine
We're planning to re-start the Portland, Maine area Drupal User Group in June. Probably the next meeting will be in Yarmouth, at Energy Circle (where I'm working, now), and we can discuss options for locations, topics, etc. Check in on the Maine group page, once in a while. I'll post news there, and at www.pugmaine.com

Drupal Everywhere!
I hear ya! What if we start out with a monthly Maine meetup on Google Hangouts - until it grows????
I would definitely join and I think others would too.
Just an idea.
Your thoughts?

That would probably work but I'd be willing to bet that there is already a Hangouts or similar online meetup available (just not aware of one myself yet). It would likely make sense to funnel through an already existing online deal if one exists. Then perhaps find some sort of way to identify those who are actually from Maine and as that grows, then branch off to something local. Perhaps use a username like gamers do with clans lol, append the name with the user location or some such sillyness. The reason being is that I could see people from locations other than Maine joining in and if thats the case, then it would probably make sense to help an existing online group grow rather than try to cobble together a new one. Ideally I'd like to see something local, but I dont think to many moose or lobsters have experience with Drupal haha.
