<h3>Details of the event:</h3><ul><li>Dates: 22 - 23 April 2026</li><li>Times: 09:30 - 16:30 (lunch and coffee will be provided)</li><li>Location: Eindhoven University of Technology (Exact location to be announced)</li><li>Organizer: 4TU.ResearchData</li></ul>

This workshop will take place on April 22-23rd, 2026 at Eindhoven University of Technology. It will focus on <a href="https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/index.html" title="https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/index.html" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Unix shell</a> and <a href="https://swcarpentry.github.io/git-novice/" title="https://swcarpentry.github.io/git-novice/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">version control using Git</a> based on the Carpentry training material. The last part of the second day will be about the 4TU.ResearchData repository system. Our main goal is to provide basic skills in working with the Unix shell and versioning control to enable 4TU.ResearchData community members to work more efficiently and reproducibly with their software. We will exemplify the main version control concepts with a simple Python script. However, the script execution is not crucial for the scope of this workshop. Previous knowledge of Python is not required.

Is this workshop on Unix shell and Git suitable for you? If you are a novice and work with code, data, or research workflows, these skills are foundational. Here are four concrete reasons to join:Work efficiently from the command line The Unix shell lets you navigate directories, automate repetitive tasks, manipulate files in bulk, and build reproducible workflows , all faster and more precisely than with a graphical interface.Protect your work with version control Git ensures your progress is never lost. You can track every change, recover earlier versions instantly, and maintain a complete, structured history of your project.Experiment without risk With branching and version tracking, you can test new ideas, refactor code, or explore alternative analyses while preserving a stable working version.Collaborate and ensure reproducibility Git enables structured collaboration and transparent change tracking, while command-line skills make your workflows scriptable and reproducible , essential for robust, open, and auditable research.
