The Git & Version Control Internship (GitHub Basics) is designed to introduce students and budding developers to the most essential tool used in every tech team — Git and GitHub. This internship provides practical, hands-on experience with version control, project collaboration, and contributing to codebases, helping you understand how real-world development teams manage their work.
Whether you're an aspiring developer, working on solo projects, or looking to contribute to open-source, mastering Git is a non-negotiable skill. In this internship, you'll learn everything from initializing repositories and pushing commits to handling branches, resolving merge conflicts, and collaborating using pull requests — all within a safe, guided environment.
This internship is a must-have foundation before diving into any team-based software development or internship.
