Git with your friends (remastered) (Friends)

The Changelog: Software Development, Open Source

Our Changelog & Friends proof-of-concept with Mat Ryer has been remastered! Now with full-length video on YouTube. Originally recorded: 2023-02-08

Mat joins us for some good conversation about some Git tooling that’s been on our radar. We speculate, we discuss, we laugh, and Mat even breaks into song a few times. It’s good fun.
