Department of Physics Git Server

Git is the most widely used system for controlling the source code version (see https://git-scm.com/). The Department of Physics has provided a server with a Gitlab web interface for students and staff since June 2017, which can be found at git.physik.uni-marburg.de.

Registration can be completed on the University web login service (Shibboleth) at git.physik.uni-marburg.de.

What is version control? What is Git?

Git is used for versioning files. For programming in particular, it is used to monitor your changes, undo them, make them available to others via so-called “repositories” or to obtain updates from others. This facilitates joint work on programming projects and supports structured programming.  Further information.
