What do you recommend for non-programmers, who would still benefit from version control system.
Examples:
- Book author using markdown / static site generator to publish a book. Uses visual editors like Typora.
- Product designers for open-source hardware. Various design files, SVG etc.
I’ve experimented with a “GUI only” git flow - just to see what is possible, so I could introduce the concept to others.
I found GitHub desktop app (https://desktop.github.com/)did https://desktop.github.com/)did a great job of visually showing git flows and functions, but for a non-tech/programmming person, the tool would be daunting.
Curiosity what your suggested tech stack would be - sans Terminal…
- mbfg 3y agoi'd probably recommend Mercurial, say a UI like TortoiseHq. It has 90% of the value of git with a much better interface.
