> Does someone who just wants to experiment with a little bit of web-dev really need to have version control right away? To explain: She wants to eventually work as a developer and has a project in mind guiding her. I started her with the simplest possible steps and she's been learning html & css for a few weeks now with some great progress. She got the the point where she was starting to have multiple projects she was building for learning. In addition, she was starting to feel the pain of "this project is on my desktop, but I am going to be away from home for a week and will only have my laptop." For those reasons (as well as the benefit of introducing GitHub as a place of collaboration), we took some a few hours to cover git and the terminal. It didn't seem like we jumped to it too early and after those three hours she had the basics which is good enough to ensure her projects are safely replicated to GitHub and available for her no matter which machine she is on.
