Setup Git

If you're familiar with Git and Github, you can skip this section!

We're going to be using Git, which is a tool that tracks changes in your code over time. This is useful if you ever want to roll back to a previous version of your code, merge the changes that another person made, keep a detailed history of your work, and many other things. Github, on the other hand, is a service which hosts your Git repositories online and makes it easy for you to share them.

To get a better idea of how git works, go through Github's Git tutorial here: http://try.github.io

If you don't have a Github account already, create one at https://github.com/ now. You'll be hosting the code for class exercises and your games here, so go through Github's walkthrough for creating your first repository: https://help.github.com/articles/create-a-repo.

You're done!
